Strike Industries Enhanced Bolt Catch on AR-15

Details:

If you’re interested in improving the operation of your AR-15, consider the Strike Industries Enhanced Bolt Catch.

The bolt catch of your AR15 locks the bolt in the rear position when your magazine has been emptied. This catch also allows you to release the bolt when you’ve reloaded and are ready to resume firing. Because of its function, it is important that the bolt release be sturdy and easy to manipulate.

The Enhanced Bolt Catch by Strike Industries features a bold, ridged pattern to assist in providing positive finger engagement. The extra-wide lever surface allows for simpler finger operation and improved finger contact. This bolt release will fit snugly on all Mil-Spec AR-15 lower receivers. Made from solid steel, this release will give your AR a noticeable edge over the competition, while at the same time providing you with a sturdy mechanism to catch and release your bolt.

Easy to install, well made and a great price. All top notch products from SI.
Good looking but could be machined better from SI

This part is a good add for function and looks. It however will not fit all billet lowers and uppers. The roll pins weak and are in need of a higher quality roll pin. For the price and fit I like the looks and feel of these but without the proper tools for modification they may not work with billet lowers and uppers.

Easy to engage bolt lock back

Posted by Unknown on 12th Sep 2016

I really like the enlarged pads on this bolt catch. It makes it a lot easier to hold the bolt open. Also easier to release. I shoot left handed and i don't have to move my hand around to set or release it. Just have to move my trigger finger. I put one on each of my ARs. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is one of the 2 had a small nub on it that I had to sand down so it would fit.
Really dig the design

Posted by Lotus_8 on 23rd Aug 2016

This is a great shape and design for a bolt catch. I got mine and installed it and it works great. There was a thick line from the casting process down the left side of the one I received and I really wanted this to look like a high end build and looking at photos I think I just got an ugly one.

I reached out to the manufacture to see if the part was MIM and this is the response: " The current EBC is investment cast from milspec 8620 and correctly carburized, quenched and tempered for proper surface hardness. It is the same material and process as used on the U.S. military's bolt catches, and the same used by companies such as ALG and BCM. The previous iteration of the EBC, which did have occasional brittleness issues, was MIM'd. That version has been out of production since early February. "

They should include this info in the description as this is a really nice high quality upgrade!

I did remove mine because of the line and installed a BAD mag catch and I honestly like the design of the SI better but that line made mine just look cheap.
Enhanced Bolt Catch is great

Posted by Hung Long on 14th Aug 2016

Works just like it should. Installation was just like any other mil-spec bolt catch. Do not hesitate if you're on the fence, strike has a lot of good products and this is definitely one of them.

P.S. Installing this will make you more operator by tenfold.
Must have AR platform item

Posted by Sgt. Sargent on 5th Aug 2016

Simply put, this should come standard on all ARs .
The simplicity of having the ability to easily release and lock the bolt is amazing . Gone are the days of feeling for the pin to lock open the bolt. Fast and non intrusive.
Well done Strike !
Bad Ass Bolt Catch

Posted by M. Flanigan on 21st Jul 2016

Strike industries makes some of the best looking products on the market today. This bolt catch is no exception. Looks awesome and has large pads to lock/unlock the bolt. Why buy mil-spec when you can spend a few dollars more and have something nice looking on you AR.
looks are everything

Posted by Unknown on 17th Jul 2016

The larger size Functions better than the standard mil spec and looks a lot better. This is an inexpensive upgrade to an ar. Good quality works well and easy to install.
the way it should have been from the beginning

Posted by LateOutDrsMn on 5th Jul 2016

I never understood why the part you press to catch the bolt was so small. This takes care of it. Feels and opporates great. Will be picking up a few more for future builds and gifts.

Like the fit and it works great on my 9mm lower.
Plus got it for a great price
Very well made

Posted by Robert on 24th May 2016

I love this bolt release. It's a big upgrade from the regular milspec catch. It's easy to use the meat of your thumb pad to engage it.
Very nice ambi bolt catch

Strike has produced another outstanding item at a great price . Comes with Spring, plunger and roll pin . Unlike almost every other manufacturer, This BC makes short work of its job .The extra surface lets you make slap moves that decreases reload time drastically . The Overall product works flawless and is priced right . Fast shipping nice selection from Wing as always ..

First experience with a strike industries product and I am impressed. The price point was awesome and the product is great! Nice tight tolerances and great texturing. I was so impressed I also purchased a strike charging handle and love that as well!!
