Best way to mount a bipod....?

Would it be wise to try to tap a synthetic stock for a stud for a bipod? this gun has the built in swivels so no studs but i would like a bipod....other than mounting it on the barrel any ideas? what brand of bipod would you suggest if so?

Harris bipod and epoxy the mounting stud. Check some of the M1A boards, lots of pic's on mounting to a fiberglass stock.

I agree with crate. There are studs available with machine threads and a nut. Drill the stock, and inlet inside for the nut. Screw her in with loctite, or epoxy it in for best hold.
