Product description

Speed Up The Bolt Catch with this B.A.D. Lever from Magpul

The B.A.D. Lever (Battery Assist Device) is designed to considerably improve the speed and efficiency of the AR15/M16 bolt catch. It quickly addresses reloading and malfunction clearance shortcomings of AR15/M16 platforms by extending a paddle to the right side of the weapon.

It allows the manipulation of the bolt stop from the fire control/ready position with the right-hand trigger finger.

All mounting hardware included.

Looks and works great

When these first came out I was sure whether or not these things were necessary. I survived in the military without one and had no problems.
However, since I started using them I can't believe just how much easier it made mag changes. It's a great innovation.
William Verified buyer
Very easy to install, functions just like I expected it to.

I love this mod for any AR I build.

I haven’t had time to give it a full day at the range, but I have played around with it at the house. I can see some positives, but I really want to do more testing before I commit.

I have these on my two AR’s i bought an AR shotgun and an AR-10. Sadly they don’t fit on those two. But i love the BAD lever system. It makes it so you can lock the bolt back without having to take your hand off the grip. But more importantly for me if I’m in need of fast reload i can slap a new mag in and release the bolt with my trigger finger and get back to shooting! Trying to convince my department to put them on all our patrol AR’s!

I was impressed with this lever. No muss No fuss. I am building a his & hers set of ARs and I like how this lever makes the bolt release with your finger. No Muss No Fuss! I will be buying again for my other ARs in the future.
