I have a Harris Bipod on my 10T. I have some reservations on shooting long range with one but on a carbine I think you will be just fine.

Make sure you purchase the right height for your rifle. Too low and there will be extra flex in the legs when you have them extended.

I can say I have never had a single problem with mine and since being mounted to my rifle it has not been removed.

p.s. I have the swivel version and really like it. If you will be or may shoot from uneven ground it is a must.

Definitely one of the most handy options to put on a rifle. Provides great stability and Harris bipods are solid equipment. I have a 9-13" on my Lar-8

Harris is pretty much the standard for bi-pods. I've got a few on my ARs and hunting rigs. No issues with any of them. On non-FF barrels, you may get a POI shift because of the pressure exerted by the weight of the bipod.

I have a Harris that is modified by LaRue with their quick release. Haven't had any issues. :P It is on a Armalite AR-10

I am also a fan of Harris Bipods. Especially the ones with the swivel. I have them on most of my rifles... except my AR-10 SASS. I find that the heavier the firearm, the harder it is to pan around on a spring-loaded legged bipod like the Harris. The legs are not locked so they will snap close on me.

I ended up with the Atlas Bipod. It is rock solid yet allows me pan and tilt when needed. The legs can be locked in 5 different positions, including forward. It's also silent when deploying the legs. It's a $200 bipod, but seems to be worth every penny and more.
