Magpul B.A.D. Lever Bolt Catch Extension Fits AR-15 223 Rem/556NATO Black MAG980
Product Details
Designed to considerably improve the speed and efficiency of the AR15/M16 bolt catch the B.A.D. Lever quickly addresses reloading and malfunction clearance shortcomings of AR15/M16 platforms by extending a paddle to the right side of the weapon allowing manipulation of the bolt stop from the fire control/ready position with the right-hand trigger finger. Made from milspec-anodized aluminum the B.A.D. Lever attaches to the standard AR15/M16 bolt release without permanent modification to the weapon. Functional for both left and right-handed shooters the B.A.D. Lever also allows traditional bolt catch manipulation according to the AR15/M16 manual of arms. All mounting hardware included. Made in U.S.A.
Feature:
- Compatible with standard mil-spec forged AR15/M16 receivers*
- Thin anti-snag profile and textured surface still allows for traditional manipulation of the bolt catch while maintaining unobstructed access to the trigger
- Attaches to the existing bolt catch paddle via one screw
- Machined from durable billet 6061-T6 aluminum
- Finished with MIL-A-8625F Type III Class 2 hard anodizing with manganese phosphate on the screw per MIL-DTL-16232G
- Torx� mounting screw with Nyloc� Blue patch prevents back out under recoil (Torx wrench included)
