Strike Industries Enhanced Bolt Catch, AR-15, Black

Description

The Strike Industries Enhanced Bolt Catch upgrades your AR-15 with a wider bolt catch lever surface. The extra-wide latch area makes hitting the bolt catch faster and more reliable under pressure. Because of this, the si enhanced bolt catch supports easier bolt manipulation during reloads. As a result, this si enhanced bolt catch performs better than the standard mil-spec part right out of the box.

In addition, solid steel construction gives the catch the durability to handle hard training use. Furthermore, a clean matte black finish blends into any standard AR-15 build. Also, the catch installs as a direct mil-spec drop-in for standard AR-15 lowers without modifications. Moreover, the sleek SI design keeps the profile clean without adding unnecessary bulk. When you want a si enhanced bolt catch that is faster and easier to hit on every reload, this is it.

Specifications

The bolt catch is the control on the left side of the AR-15 or AR-10 lower receiver that locks the bolt carrier group to the rear when the last round in the magazine is fired, and releases the bolt to chamber a new round when the magazine is changed and the bolt catch paddle is pressed. The standard mil-spec bolt catch paddle is relatively small and can be difficult to activate quickly under stress or while wearing gloves, particularly for the support hand thumb technique used to release the bolt after a reload. An enhanced or extended bolt catch provides a larger paddle surface area for faster, more positive actuation during slide lock reloads, reducing the chance of a fumbled bolt release under stress. The Strike Industries bolt catch installs in the standard bolt catch pin hole of any mil-spec AR-15 or AR-10 lower receiver without modification, using the existing bolt catch roll pin and plunger spring. The anodized aluminum construction keeps the bolt catch lightweight while providing a durable, hard surface that resists wear from repeated actuation.
