Reviews & Ratings for Phase 5 Weapon Systems Inc Extended Bolt Release V2 AR-15 EBRV2 — 11 reviews — Page 1

Looks great works great will buy another one or v3 when on sale. This thing makes releasing and holding the bolt back so much easier. Reloading and mag dumping made fun! I’d recommend you get one for at least one lower you have.

Not only that it is pleasing aesthetically but functions as it should. I have three of them. It is easy to lock the bolt by just using your trigger finger instead of reaching around to the other side of the lower receiver. Installs very easily as long as you have the tools. Just make sure you have a plunger and spring as it does not come with them. I would recommend it to anyone upgrading their equipment or building their lowers.

This is one of the best bolt catches I’ve ever used. I was unsure about it at first but after using it a couple times at the range I found my self wondering how come I never tried it sooner. Install was an ease as long as you got a good punch kit and I was things it would infer with my gloves but barely even realised it was there. Phase 5 makes good quality and it’s at a great price I would highly recommended for your next build

Awesome product if you like bad levers. I've become very accustomed to using these extended bolt releases on my rifles they work well. This was my first time purchasing this Phase 5 Weapon Systems model and i love the look and design of it. The one thing I caution is that depending how your receiver set is designed you may find it very challenging to install. My receiver had a metal tab that sticks up on the left side. This then makes it so the only way to install the roll pin is through the right side which is where the products metal lever comes down. This will make it very challenging to install the pin. I was able to get mine in with an extra set of hands but just keep this in mind, frustration easily sets in and you could scratch up your lower receiver. The product itself is awesome I love it. Dont let my lower receiver discourage you from purchasing this product it works great and I love mine.

It took a little longer than I expected to receive this bolt release but it was worth the wait. It feels much more solid than the Magpul BAD lever, I'm sure primarily because it's one piece instead of a clamp on. Looks super cool too.

Great product does exactly what it was designed for. This is my 2nd one and ill be getting another for another build shortly. I would recommend this product to anyone. Great for single hand operations.

Awesome product. Fits well and is much better than a standard bolt catch..........….................................……………...............................................................................

Returned as it will not work on the Savage MSR-15 Recon. This is due to the Savage custom lower equipped with a lip that prevents the bolt release to be depressed. Would have installed and kept if it worked on this brand.

Installed on Palmetto Armory lower, fit and function are perfect.

With bolt forward had very little movement and makes no noise, improvement over bolt on Magpul and Troy versions.
With bolt open very tight and and has crisp release.

Very well built!! The all one piece design is a much better product than the bolt on/bolt together competitors. No chance of anything coming loose. You will have to have a little bit of mechanical skills to install, but nothing that a hammer, vise, and roll pin punch can't handle.
