B.a.d. lever - Magpul Industries B.A.D. Lever

I initially hesitated buying these as I thought that they possibly made the gun less safe due to the proximity of the lever to the trigger. After talking to a respected 3-Gun shooter at a local range who used one in competition, I decided to buy a couple of these.

While it is nice to be able to release the bolt with this lever by pushing it down, I really like being able to lift it up with my right finger as I pull the charging handle back to lock the bolt open. It really increases the ergonomics of the AR-15/M-16 platform. This part as well as the Badger tactical latch are great additions to this rifle system. Add a good upgraded trigger and you have a great weapon that will not break the bank.

The only reason I gave it four stars is that of the four of these that I have bought, one would not fit any of my rifles. I went to the Magpul website and filled out their contact form describing my issue and never received a response.
