Abstract: The invention relates to a rifle comprising a barrel, a stock, a bipod and bipod housing formed within the stock of the rifle and in which one or more legs of the bipod may be housed when the bipod is in a storage position. The forestock may comprise a body and a tip. The tip may be configured to support one or more legs of the bipod and may also be configured to hinge away from the body to cause the legs to project toward a supporting surface when the bipod is in an operational position.
