Most Helpful Positive Review ***UPDATE***
UPDATE*** After contacting Seekins directly, there is no change in product design. I somehow received a repackaged bolt catch direct from Opticsplanet.com. Seekins provided outstanding customer support. I've changed by rating to reflect my experience with the previous (identical) bolt catches I've u...

Most Helpful Negative Review Just a regular milspec bolt catch, did not receive item pictured
A bit confused how this has anything but a 1 star rating. I just got the package, with 'Seeking Enhanced Bolt Catch' written on the front, yet it is 100% a standard milspec bolt catch - does not look ANYTHING like the bolt catch in the images for this product. I was completely tricked. Putting it up...

solid, subtle bolt catch

by Marsh, Verified Owner from ID, United States Written on December 30, 2022
Not obnoxiously large but not too small. The photos don't do the raised bottom bolt hold open justice. It's much easier to manipulate since it sticks out further than the paddle, even with gloves. Solves my biggest gripe with the ar-15 bolt hold open being trickier to use with thicker gloves. Ambi mag releases are still easy to operate. The build quality is great, have had no fitment issues. Price isn't unreasonable given end user value. Just barely fits the BRN upper receiver notch. Plus, dimples are cute. Recommend seekins mag catch to compliment.

Almost perfect

by Destin, Verified Owner from OR, United States Written on August 23, 2021
Rhis is a high quality product, well made. Needed something tougher than mil-spec for my 9mm build and this does it. I wish the etching on the fingerpad was more pronounced, it looks "soft" compared to the other knurlings on the build.

Smooth and functional

by Oakes, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on June 15, 2021
Smooth black finish that blends well with most of the lowers I’ve built. No rough edges or gritty phosphate finish. Larger than mil spec paddle that makes it easy for bolt release. These also fit great when using a VLTOR upper receiver since they blend well when mating the upper and lower with the opening in that specific upper.

Seekins Bolt Catch

by Joe Tompkins, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on January 15, 2021
This is a good bolt catch from Seekins I like that its not excessive in size and simply does what it's intended to do. Optics Planet had the item available in stock at an excellent price with prompt shipping.

Seekins wins once again

by O.P. junkie, Verified Owner from IL, United States Written on November 17, 2020
Great product. Fit and finish are great and overall feel is great. Would definitely buy again for any future builds. A little on the shiny side and wish it were a little more subdued but overall A++++
Pros:
  • Price
  • Fit and finish
  • egonomic
Cons:
  • A little shiny for my liking but I'm nit-picking

Simple and effective upgrade

by Dave, from TX, United States Written on November 13, 2020
I've always thought a standard mil-spec bolt catch was a little on the small side, my pads don't 'slap' it well and have to search for the release. Not so with this one; ample surface to for a positive slap even if moving quickly. The actual catch part is also raised and knurled and very easy to lock bolt back. Only criticism is that the texturing could use to be a bit more aggressive. Good buy would recommend.

HOLDS TIGHT

by M, Verified Owner from VA, United States Written on August 10, 2020
Other bolt catches I have ordered have a rounded edge and would not catch or release. Seekins has a true flat edge which means my bolt catch stays in place properly. Very happy with product and price.
Pros:
  • Reliable Easy to install and use
Cons:
  • none so far
Best Used for:
  • upgrade from OEM

Seekins Precision Enhanced Bolt Catch

by Taz, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on July 13, 2020
Seekins Precision creates innovative pieces and products. Cool design. Nice fit and finish. I intend to I use these on all my rifles. This has a great price point and provides a feel that most milspec bolt catches lack. This should be standard in all lower parts kits

works well

by Tyler Martin, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on January 20, 2019
Has a nice very large surface area with a nice diamond texture which makes dropping the bcg after reloads super easy and ergonomic. Very easy to install, pretty straightforward. I'm pleased with my purchase and for the price it's very hard to beat.

Design Changed

by Anthony Sgambati, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on December 6, 2018
I use these on all my rifles. However, apparently Seekins changed their design because the product number on the packaging and what is lusted on the website matches but the product is different than shown. The one I recieved is oval and not square like the one in the picture (and my others that I've purchased before). I'm sure it will function just as well as the rest, just annoying that the picture is not an accurate representation of the product.
