Need opinions on bipods for ARs

I would do the Magpul one but I haven't heard if they fixed the issues with theirs yet from the initial release. Personally, if I found an Atlas at the right price, I'd be on it.

the right way to QD mount a Harris bipod to a pic rail. gets rid of that whole Rube Goldberg contraption with the pegs that pull on the sling swivel stud.

Badger and KAC are similar but not QD. I personally have zero issues using the stud attachment with an mlok or keymod adapter. For pic rail I've been using a badger 093-000-108WB.

I agree it's a technically superior solution. Unfortunately it nearly doubles the cost of a Harris bipod and requires a pic rail.

You see lots of Harris in those .Mil photos because .Mil bought them.

On a bolt gun, I like Harris but on most AR pattern rifles, the pod lock and Harris bipod size (front to back) cramp my grip when not using the bipod.

So on ARs, I prefer ATLAS by a large margin due to it's form factor.

A lot of people were having problems with the legs not staying extended. Something in it wasn't jiving and part of the polymer was wearing prematurely.
