Installing a Disjointed Bipod on a Break Barrel Airgun

[daryasarang]

I had installed a disjointed bipod on my Precihole SX100 break barrel airgun, and I wanted to share my experience with fellow DIY airgun enthusiasts. Since traditional bipods don’t work well with break barrels due to the barrel movement, I went with a disjointed bipod setup, allowing stability without interfering with cocking.

Materials Used:

1. Two single-leg or disjointed bipods.


2. Picatinny or Weaver rail


3. Screws for securing the rails


4. Drill and screwdriver



Installation Process:

1. Choosing the Mounting Points:

Since a standard bipod cannot be mounted at the center due to the break barrel action, I decided to install a disjointed bipod on the fore-end of the synthetic stock.



2. Attaching the Rails:

I drilled pilot holes on the stock and mounted a small Picatinny rails on the stock.


Used screws to ensure a solid hold.



3. Mounting the Bipods:

The bipods are attached to the rails by QD screws.

The disjointed setup allows me to cock the barrel without interference while providing a steady shooting platform.




Results & Observations:

Stable shooting position – Works well for prone and bench rest shooting.
Does not obstruct cocking – Unlike a fixed bipod, this setup allows free barrel movement.
Portable & Modular – Can remove one or both bipods when needed.
Extendable - the height can be altered as per need.


This was a fun and practical DIY project that significantly improved the aesthetics and gave a tactical look to my SX100. If you're considering adding a bipod to your break barrel airgun, a disjointed setup is the way to go!
