Oh wow, this may not be some people's cup-o-tea, but I freaking LOVE that thing!

If I ever find a tack driving '43 Izzy, or something with similar collectable value, this is what is going to happen to it.

don't bother with that bipod then. it won't drive tacks anymore with that on the end of the barrel.

Although I think it does look cool ( for a second considered the model for my rem. 597 ) a bit on the pricey side. I don't think I could spend $300 to mod a $90 rifle.

All that R&D and they stick the bipod on the barrel? Can anyone say bad harmonics??? When I get into the double digits on # of MN's I might consider it.

I certainly wouldn't attach the bipod... But it doesn't even come with the stock, they said it was from a third party.

Looks too wide and bulky for me. If it was a bit more slender with an integral bi-pod and no dorky looking front handle, then maybe worth $100... No where near $300 for that tacky thing.

Interesting design. I suppose if I had way too many MNs and money, I might consider one. But for now, I'm content with all my children residing in their own stocks.

The 597 works, but not the mosin! I don't think it would be worth $50 let alone $300.

Putting the bipod where they did in the photos won't do a thing for accuracy. On the other hand, if they could make something like what Steyr does for the Steyr Scout rifle, where the bipod folds up into the sides of the forearm and looks like it's inlaid when it's folded, they might have something.

I like the idea of bullpups, and an MN set up with the Steyr Scout-type bipod might make a good SHTF gun. Not sure it's worth what they're asking, though. It sort of puts me in mind of someone turning a Model T into a show rod, if you see what I mean.

Wow

First thought in my head was "I WANT IT". Then I realized I already had a kit turned down bolt (not the nice and pretty way) and their stock would probably need to be ground down to accomodate it and THEN I saw the price tag. $50-100 would be ok. $300? No way, but awesome design.
