DOES NOT FIT AERO M5!!! 2 stars because it appears to be well machined and finished. Useless for what I bought it for. If it doesn't fit the M5 its probably not going to work in another AR10 platform.
Maybe it will fit a 556.
Best Used for:
- Gift for someone you don't like
Would recommend: No

This is too short and doesn't make contact with the bolt face for the bolt hold open feature. Don't over-tighten the bolt catch pin or it will strip out. Aero's cheap bolt catch pin is a soft chinesium POS. You'll have to go buy a stripped bolt kit and good luck with that. It sits up too close to the receiver and is difficult to remove.
Nothing wrong with the V-Seven S7 Bolt Catch. Aero saved money on an important LIFE SAVING gun part that WILL FAIL when you need it to perform.
Would recommend: Yes

I spent hundreds of dollars in parts, to find out this fits my 5.56!!! It’s even slightly marred the bolt face on my JP 308 from half catching and jamming!! I thought I had a gas or buffer issue. Nope, 5.56 catch in my .308 build. It even came marked and packaged as a .308 part. I should have noticed it didn’t entirely fill the channel, but come on meow.

This unit flawlessly replaced a failing parts kit bolt catch that refused to catch the bolt. The ar10 version was not as long in the bolt catch block as the one installed, also the coating on the bolt catch feels premium. It went in as quickly as it started working. Would immediately buy it again moving forward.

The catch works great along with several other V Seven parts I installed on a stripped PA10/65 build. As with my other V Seven parts they are top notch. Also, Seven has awesome customer service and stands behind their product.

I installed these on three different lowers; V7 Harbinger, Aero Precision M5 and a PSA PA10 for giggles. Worked perfectly in all three. Buying more as back ups cause you never know. Only downside is it doesn’t come with the spring/plunger.
Pros:
- Strong, good tactile feel
Cons:
- No spring/plunger included
Would recommend: Yes

Does not work with the V7 AR 10. It’s too small and will not even manually hold the bolt back. Do not buy. It’s was not defective. I compare another At Rainier Arms and it was exactly the same. It was a waste of time. But AR 10 are notorious for having the bolt not hold open on the last round
