Area 419 Improved Bipod Rail
In the realm of firearm accessories, innovation is often a matter of refining what already exists. Area 419 has taken this philosophy to heart with their new bipod rail, demonstrating that even straightforward components can benefit from thoughtful enhancement.
The Area 419 bipod rail measures an ample 4.8 inches in length and features ten slots, offering you a remarkable increase in adaptability—43% more than its nearest competitors. This increased versatility does not come at the expense of weight; at just 1.09 ounces, it manages to be lighter than smaller alternatives weighing in at 1.18 ounces.
Crafted from high-strength 7075-T651 aluminum, this rail exemplifies durability without compromising on weight—a testament to American manufacturing prowess using USA-sourced materials and precision CNC machining right here on home soil.
This accessory doesn't merely rest on its laurels by being lightweight or robust; every detail speaks volumes about quality craftsmanship. Each edge is chamfered and each corner radiused for smooth handling—a process that takes longer but yields superior results.
The design accommodates screw hole spacing ranging from 1.5 inches to 3.475 inches center-to-center, ensuring compatibility with a wide variety of stocks while providing flexibility for mounting solutions such as Larue-style bipods thanks to its full-width lug feature.
A noteworthy aspect is the utility of every slot regardless of screw placement; countersinking ensures no interference—a problem commonly encountered with lesser rails where screws protrude within slots limiting usage options.
- Includes two MLOK nuts and screws for secure attachment
- Packed with (2) low-profile socket head cap screws and tee-nuts for stock installation
Please note: If your setup involves closer proximity towards the minimum recommended spacing (1.5"), it's advised against using flush cup mounts due to leverage concerns potentially affecting thread integrity within your stock’s material structure during transport scenarios.
