anyone got a lead on one or have an extra they're willing to part with? putting together a setup for ww2 reenacting and would like to carry it on my halftrack. already have a tube, cup, baseplate etc. can't find a bipod for the life of me. I'd be fine with an American M5, yugo M57, Chinese type 31 or a Brandt. seems like they don't exist anymore.
thanks

Good luck, ive been keeping a pulse on this for a couple years and your best bet will be buying a complete demilled unit off gunbroker or sturm when they come up.
Its rough.

I have a guy that has a live cup and a mangled tube with a decent tripod but he wants 2k for the setup and the tube is worthless to me and the cup is a weird thread not standard so that's useless to me aswell. can't justify spending 2k on just a tripod

I bet you could get a tube made for it, the custom tube market has come quite a ways since the olden days and then sell off your current tube+cup.
2k for a live cup, dead tube and bipod is a bit steep for sure, bowman was doing about $1500 for that same setup so maybe try to negotiate the guy down a little bit?

he won't budge. I tried even buying just the tripod and he still wanted 1800. I don't need the cup or tube, I already have those and I doubt I'll be able to sell his since the tube is demilled so useless and the cup is off size.

I'm no help.  But how about some pictures of the half track?

anyone have a bipod they'll part with or anyone have a 60mm yugo setup from apex they'll part with?
