It doesn\u2019t have much bulk and sits close to the lower receiver to not accidentally snag on anything. The B.A.D. lever allows a right-handed shooter to manipulate the bolt catch with the firing hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-installing-the-magpul-b-a-d-lever\">Installing the Magpul B.A.D. Lever<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I chose a Springfield Armory Saint Victor with a mil-spec bolt catch for B.A.D. lever installation. In reality, it takes more time to explain how to install the B.A.D. lever than it does to clamp it onto the existing bolt release of your AR. It might take longer to perform the function check after it is installed than the actual installation. No mechanical aptitude is required and it comes with its own Torx wrench. First, make sure your rifle is unloaded. Then lift on the bolt catch of your rifle and place the back plate of the lever under your existing bolt catch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG-2306-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"step 1 Installing The Magpul B.A.D.

Remember not to gorilla the screw or tighten it too much as it could strip. Magpul has some thread lock on the screw which is a good idea. If you want to use a dab of blue Loctite to secure the lever and back plate together, feel free to use a dab because you don\u2019t want it to rattle loose and fall off under extensive firing. I didn\u2019t add any extra thread lock when I installed mine, but I do check the screw when I clean the rifle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG-3629-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Left side of AR15 with Magpul B.A.D.

The L-shaped lever fits inside the top of the trigger guard and slightly protrudes out the right side of the receiver. You can press the paddle on the B.A.D. lever up or down with your shooting hand, assuming you are a right-hand shooter, and depending if you want to lock back the bolt or close the bolt. You can also use the B.A.D. lever from the left side like the mil-spec ping pong paddle bolt catch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG-2310-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Right side of AR15 showing Magpul B.A.D.

To function check the lever, make sure the rifle is not loaded, then pull back the charging handle to cock the rifle and release it. The BCG should fly forward. Next, pull back the charging handle to cock the rifle and press the B.A.D. lever up and release the charging handle. The B.A.D. lever should hold back the BCG. With the BCG locked back, press down on the paddle of the lever from the right side of the gun and the BCG should fly forward. Lock back the BCG again and press the B.A.D. lever from the left side. The BCG should fly forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG-3632-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"The Magpul B.A.D.

Lever<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During a reload, a right-handed shooter drops the mag with the trigger finger and grabs a fresh one. While your right or firing hand is doing that, your left or support hand should be grabbing a fresh mag like a can of beer and inserting it into the magwell. With the magazine seated the support hand thumb presses the bolt catch to slam home the BCG on a fresh round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the B.A.D. lever, as soon as the support hand seats the magazine, you can slam home the BCG by using the trigger finger of your firing hand to press down on the B.A.D. lever paddle. Since your support hand is not pressing the bolt catch you skip that step and shave time off your reload. In competition or in a defense situation, the less time it takes to reload can mean winning or losing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"882\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG-3639-1024x882.jpg\" alt=\"Reload with Magpul B.A.D.
