You’ve seen the Magpul Dynamics crew rocking the Battery Assist Device (B.A.D.) in training classes and on their training videos and it’s finally up on the Magpul website. The BAD has been greatly anticipated and has spawned several similar products from small shops and enthusiasts who couldn’t wait for the Magpul product to be released. Well, it’s here now, so you can get the original.
In a nutshell, the BAD allows you to manipulate the bolt catch by extending a paddle to the right side of the weapon into the trigger guard area. The simple design features a thin, anti-snag profile and textured surface that also allows for traditional manipulation of the bolt catch. The BAD is optimized for use with milspec forged upper and lower receivers, but is also compatible with the HK 416, VLTOR VIS/MUR, LaRue Stealth, and many other billet upper and lower receivers.
As with all Magpul products it is manufactured from high quality materials; in this case 6061-T6 aluminum with mil-spec finishing.

NOTE: The BAD is not compatible with the SR-25, AR-10, or other 7.62 caliber AR platforms.
