Helpful Positive Review Big improvement by Nate, Verified Owner, June 10, 2021
I liked it in my AR10 so much I picked one up for my AR15. The enlarged faces make it much easier to operate the bolt than the milspec versions. The face that contacts the magazine follower is slightly larger than the milspec version which actually...

Helpful Positive Review awesome if you can find them by Jason Edwards, Verified Owner, March 9, 2023
This is the second one of these I own. Both fit nicely. Not too much play, not too tight. Seems solid enough to hold the bolt back in my experience. It also looks very cool! But more importantly, it looks cool and functions properly. Would recomm...

Product Info for Battle Arms Development AR15/M16 Enhanced Bolt Catch

The Battle arms development EBC (enhanced bolt catch) was designed to be a drop-in upgrade to the existing MIL-SPEC bolt catch. Due to the design of this bolt catch, it provides not only a better purchase on the release portion but the lock portion of the catch as well. This makes reloading the gun from bolt lock much faster and locking the bolt to the rear much eaisier. The BAD-EBC-IC is also skeletonized to reduce weight and remove material not needed.image
