Upgrade your rifle with the Patriot Ordnance Factory Enhanced Universal Bolt Catch. POF's new enhanced universal bolt catch is just another example of our continuation of innovation. The large angled bolt catch pad allows for faster bolt catch activation to clear the rifle. It also contains a wider tooth for more effective magazine follower engagement.
fit and finish were perfect. 4.5 stars/
i purchased because i was using in conjunction with a Sig Sauer ambi mag release. The Sig release is oversized and i didnt have alot of real estate left for an improved bolt catch. The Paddle by Luthis great-I have it on my other AR- but was a bit too big to use in conjunction with the Sig ambi mag release, which i really really like.

Not mil-spec
Had problems with this part after switching out a mil- spec one. There are several spots where this part doesn't match a mil- spec bolt catch when put side by side. I was switching one out so had pins and spring - but would have been nice if it came with them - it doesn't. Also, only the lower push area is larger the upper push pad is the same size as mil - spec. For the money and quality this not a good product Cons: Grey finish

This catch solves a problem
On of the biggest complaints I have is when locking the bolt back on an AR the standard mil-spec bolt catches are extremely narrow and hard to find without looking. Especially when a loaded magazine is in place. This bold catch gives a wider surface and a very tactile feel so I can quickly reach up and lock the bolt back.
