Product Description
Magpul BAD Lever Battery Assist Device AR-15 Black
The Magpul BAD Lever (Battery Assist Device) is a machined 6061-T6 aluminum extension that attaches to the AR-15 bolt catch and extends a paddle to the right side of the receiver — allowing the shooter to lock and release the bolt with the right-hand trigger finger without breaking the firing grip or reaching across the receiver with the support hand. The operational benefit is concrete: after a reload, the shooter can drop the bolt with a flick of the right index finger from the normal firing grip, shaving the half-second that reaching for the left-side bolt catch costs in competition or emergency use. The BAD Lever also provides a left-handed bolt catch engagement point for left-handed shooters running ambidextrous operations. Installation requires no permanent modification to the receiver — it clamps to the existing bolt catch using the original pivot pin. At under 0.2 oz in 6061-T6, the weight addition is essentially immeasurable.

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.
