I am interested in the Magpul Bipods. Have any of you used them? I am impressed with them on the shelf but I would really love to hear from some folks who have used them. Please respond if you have tried them. Thanks

I bought and installed a M-LOK version several months ago. I was very pleased with how it looked and functioned. After my first range trip with it, I liked it even more. Works very well for me.

Is it a big improvement over a Harris bipod? I’m interested in one but haven’t broken my Harris yet.

I just bought one a month ago, and first impressions are good. I just havent used it a ton to really say if its a proven piece of gear.

Yes. It is a Harris killer, but not an Atlas killer.Originally Posted by dpb1776
Keep in mind, Atlas is much more expensive so there's a sliding scale as to cost there.

Balancing the gun on an Ice pick tip is an improvement over a Harris bipod. I love my Atlas, but the Magpul isn't too far back in second place... followed by the KAC.
The Magpul succeeds in being useful without having to figure out what knobs/buttons do. It's intuitive.

LOL, Harris is like the crusty old guy in the crowd. Mine still works, but I have an internal debate on whether I'd prefer to shoot with the Harris or have a root canal.
ETA, one word comes to mind when I think Harris: Sproing!

I've been using Harris for 20 years, and I don't have any complaints with the 9-13 swivel/notched. But, I have been meaning to try one of the Magpul bipods, as I do have plenty of Magpul products and they all seem to shine.
Looks like some great endorsements here for the Magpul bipod, thanks for sharing.

Pretty much the same experience here, from the mountains of Idaho to the sugar sand pine scrubs of central FL never had one issue with my two Harris Pods. I beat the hell out of both and they still do as intended.
