Putting your repairs in our template format will save us all time and ensure you get the correct repair.

It seems that you may only have to warp the QFD back into shape, or possible remove it. You also could replace the QFD with another similar device, though we'll need more information to fully help you.

I would advise you take a picture, we can probably better determine whats up with your gun if you provide a picture of the gun and the areas the bipod is broken at. When you say "quick fill" Do you mean the tap the gun is inserted into or the 1 inch tube connecting into it? I would estimate that your gun is about half way through its life. Again if you take pictures I can tell you if you can attach the bipods or not (I have removed mine dozens of times). Get those pics and we can help!

I can't figure out why its broken, does it leak a lot out the QFD? if do, either warp it back as doom suggested, or just plug it with epoxy. Its really sad when a gun as valuable as a MXL is broken, in some cases. I got mine free because it was broken. Then I fixed it. :P
