Works great
Installed in a m4e1 aero lower. Works great. Pretty smooth and easy to use lefty. The rest is filler. How much can you right about a mag release and they require 200 characters to post a review. Hope this is helpful.

Does not catch magazine properly
I just recently got this mag release in the mail and went to the range yesterday to try it out. Every time I put a magazine in and hit the bolt release the bolt would not slide forward. This is because the magazine would go too far into the mag well due to this mag release not catching it properly. ...

Bad lever review
I love it works great especially for lefty’s !def will be buying more
Would recommend: Yes

I like strike industries products, but this is a complete miss. Any pressure at all will drop the mag.
Best Used for:
- No one
Would recommend: No
Its OK but its not wirth it
Mag release is well made works ok but I found it wasn’t needed. Not hating on the product so much, it’s just a little gimmicky. With proper training it’s not needed. Spend your money somewhere else.
Pros:
- Its tacticool
Cons:
- Not needed
Would recommend: No
Decent release
Overall decent quality am I release. My only complaint is it will not work with extended bolt catch, But worth getting if you plan on mil spec bolt catch.
Would recommend: Yes
It just works
It's a pretty easy upgrade. That being said, it does have a break in period and some adjustment necessary. On the one I installed, it wanted to hang up. When you pressed it to release the mag, it didn't want to reset. It required some adjustment to get it to work smoothly. And once I started shooting the rifle and using it, it did get smoother.
Pros:
- It does work as advertised and it is more convenient for a left handed shooter
Cons:
- Requires some adjustment and fine tuning.
Best Used for:
- Good option for the left handed shooter
Would recommend: Yes
Interesting device
I installed this in my completed AR-10 lower. There is no upper yet, so this has not been put thru any real action. Therefore my comments below could be considered premature. This is a super-cool device that lets a left handed shooter very easily drop the mag with the left index finger. My concern, and the reason for the 4 stars, is that it’s VERY easy to drop the mag with just a slight touch. There’s no spring push-back like you feel when pushing the button on the right side of the mag well. It directly releases the mag. If the rifle is accidentally bumped on the left side, I can see the mag dropping out. And because it’s so close to the bolt catch, I can already see myself dropping the mag when all I want to do is lock the bolt back. Especially with gloves in cold weather. This would seem to require gloveless very fine motor skills, and does not seem clunky enough to withstand gloves and inexact finger placement, or any type of ‘bumping around’ in its intended use. Time will tell.
Would recommend: Yes
Update rifle function
Give rifle much needed ambidextrous controls when use of off hand
Would recommend: Yes
Do not listen to the bad reviews
I have this installed on two rifles and it is holding the mags perfectly. Don't listen to the ones who say it is dropping the mags, it wont hold any mags etc. It is releasing them just fine aswell. From both sides. I am using it with an Odin Gen 3 extended mag release button aswell. If you have the Bad lever; this will work just fine with it aswell.
Would recommend: Yes

Useless product
This ambidextrous magazine release is terrible. The spring tension is too light. The mag will fall out after about five rounds. Last time I was at the range I had to wedge some cardboard from my ammo boxes under the ambi-release to keep the magazine from falling out. Do not buy this product!!!
Would recommend: No
quick easy and lightweight
This thing was really easy to put on. Its aluminum so its lightweight and it works great.
Would recommend: Yes
