Description
Product Overview
The Magpul B.A.D. Lever, or Battery Assist Device, extends the AR15/M16 bolt catch with a paddle on the right side of the receiver. This lets the shooter manipulate the bolt stop with the right-hand trigger finger from the ready position, streamlining bolt catch access during reloading and malfunction clearance. Its design retains conventional bolt catch operation and supports use by both right- and left-handed shooters.
Key Features
- Includes mounting hardware and a Torx wrench.
- Textured, low-profile design supports a secure grip while maintaining traditional bolt catch access.
- Clamps to the existing bolt catch paddle with one screw and requires no permanent firearm modification.
- Machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum with a black Type III, Class 2 hardcoat anodized finish.
- Compatible with standard mil-spec forged AR15/M16 receivers; not compatible with 7.62x51/.308 Winchester firearms or most billet and polymer receivers.
Add an extended bolt catch control to a compatible AR15/M16 setup with the Magpul B.A.D. Lever.

Easy ro install, and works well. Did not realize how useful this is until I used it the first range visit.

You can actuate it...
You can actuate it easily without putting your finger in the trigger guard. It is a minor pain in the rear to put onto the bolt release paddle. Crank it down onto the bolt release paddle and the only wobble will be because of the paddle wobbling in its little mount on its pin itself. If you are running a fixed magazine build, this, to me, is a necessity. It lets you check the chamber without juggling the rifle or awkwardly trying hold the bolt release down and release the charging handle. Just push on the BAD lever with your index finger and manipulate the charging handle with your support hand.
