Really informative! I am going to pick up a couple of these for Christmas!
I bought two sets of these Bipods and put them on my Gamo Maxxim Swarm and my Benjamin NP Trail. Wow! The accuracy was greatly improved. I went from shooting 2″ groups at 20 yards to under 1″groups and better. The installation was easy after i watched the video. Thank you Airgun Detectives!!!
John I purchased the bipod kit from you and it was an incredible acquisition.. My question is, do you sell additional picatinny rail mounts so I can place the bipods on another rifle?
Edwin,
I am glad the bi-pod kit worked out well for you. I have been getting a lot of positive feedback in the shooters are greatly approving their accuracy. As far as additional picatinny rails, right now I only have limited amount of rails that go with each Bi-pod kit. I am hoping to get some additional rails, as well as more of the mounting screws, in soon. That will be listed as an option on my website as soon as they come in.
Inspired! I’ve placed an order for a bipod kit for my Sig ASP-20. I can’t wait. Thanks for tesing and developing this kit!
Your kit is on its way! We have had tremendous feeedback let us know how you like it 🙂
Hi. I recently purchased a Crosman Mag-Fire Ultra (.22) break barrel air rifle but cannot find a suitable or any bipod that I can fit to the rifle.
Any advice or possibly steering me in the direction of acquiring a bipod that fits would be greatly appreciated
Thanks and regards

I sent you an email Gary. The Gen-2 Bipods may be a good fit for you.
Hi JC
Apologies for lack of response. I definitely want a set of the Gen-2 bipods please. How do I go about purchasing one
Thanks and regards

best place to mount on my swarm magnum in front of screw or behind like i see you did on maxxim? already have a set coming cant wait to see the results
Are the two side mounted rails and bipods significantly better than one rail and bipod mounted on the bottom? Hope I didn’t miss this in your video. Love your website and learned so much from your videos. Just purchased an Umarex Origin in part due to your review. My first PCP. Tinkering with the “dark side” after being a diehard springer guy for so long. Thanks.
MARTY, the reason we use the split bipods is on a break-barrel or under-lever air rifle because you can’t use a single rail mount. The Cocking process makes a single rail installation not possible 🙂
Ok. Thanks. Sorry for being stupid! Was thinking about putting a bipod on the Origin when I asked the question. Wish they had included the front, bottom pic rail on it, like you said.
Will be ordering a few of your side mount kits when back in stock.
Thanks again for all your useful info and great website.
You can put a short 6-slot picatinny rail on the bottom of the Origin as well. I am currently trying to get some of the 6-slot rails and some mounting screws, I will keep you posted. Additionally, I am diligently working on Bipod kits. It is taking some time but hopefully the final product will be ell worth the wait.????
Thank you. Sounds good.
