Most Helpful Positive Review Absolutely Great!
Another quality part from CMMG! Honestly, I bought this, well, just to add to my receiver no specific reason but WOW! I’m so glad I did. The installation was quick and easy. You can really feel the quality of this part. Everything is smooth. Highly recommend!
Most Helpful Negative Review Works, but Location is Bad
Pros: Ambi mag release, works, no modificatuoj to gun frame. Cons: Works poorly, if at all, with BAD lever or similar devices, works poorly with maritime bolt catch, really close to standard bolt release. I believe they are on the same vertical plane. I would only reccomend this to those that aren...

CMMG Ambi mag catch

by johnchip, Verified Owner from CT, United States Written on March 14, 2026
I've tried a few different Ambi mag catch/release kits before and this is by far the best one I've come across. It's pretty low profile so no worries about it getting snagged on something. Install is exactly the same as any other mag catch. Beat of all it works great. I can drop the mag from the left side easily. The price is not bad either. I highly recommend it.

It fits well and works ambi

by Mike L., Verified Owner from AE, United States Written on December 24, 2025
Good magazine catch, ambi and works well!

the only thing is I replaced the mag button with the magpul extended button and works well with this! (just the button replacement). Nonetheless this looks good and functions well when release mags on either side

Minimalist ambi

by Marc Harris, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on November 16, 2025
This ambi is simple and effective. If you are a dedicated lefty then there are better options. It does work with a B.A.D. lever with very little clearance and can be somewhat difficult to get around the BAD lever if you have short fingers.

Great addition

by Kevlar Kev, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on September 7, 2025
Works very well for what it’s intended purpose is for. Solid lock up. Won’t release mag unless pressed

  • All good.

Cmmg Ambi Magazine Catch

by Joe Lee, Verified Owner from TN, United States Written on February 4, 2025
Nice upgrade. Especially for left hand people. It doesn't stick out to far. And it will function correctly with extended bolt catches like the Giessele Maritime bolt catch.
Pros:
  • Sturdy action
Cons:
  • Have to apply more pressure than the original mag release
Would recommend: Yes

Great Product

by Troy Bunker, Verified Owner from ME, United States Written on January 21, 2025
I have been using one of these for over a year on my Areo Precision M5 and it works great. I do a lot of ambi shooting so it has seen some use. It is an easy installation and I haven't had any issues.
