I'm looking for a way to raise the height of my 1919a4 when its on the tripod so I don't have to lie in the dirt.
I currently have a small pintle on the gun, and it fits the tripod perfectly. I have a forked pintle to mount the gun in a scout car socket on my Wrangler, but it's too big for the tripod.

Is there a solution to my dilemma?

Thanks,
Brian

You should probably buy another gun for the taller tripod you buy, that way you wont have an empty tripod. J

I agree, 1 gun for every mount should be the first option. O/w you could buy this to raise it up 12". I have a spring buffered one and it works good. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=553491214

Yep that will take care of the problem.

I also have the buffered one it works great. This on is nice too.

I too have one of Rich's buffered mounts and I'm very happy with it, however, being old and lazy, I put together an extension to lift it even further.
The traverse is now unlimited but the vertical elevation only is limited by the adjusting wheel.
I can now sit in a garden chair to fire it.

After 26 years in the US Army lying in the mud and dirt, I bought one of these so I didn't have to anymore:
