The Strike Industries ARAMBIMRBK Ambidextrous Magazine Release transforms standard AR-15 and M16 platforms into truly ambidextrous systems. This mil-spec component eliminates the traditional right-hand bias of magazine releases, providing equal access for both dominant and support-hand manipulation.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard magazine releases that require awkward finger positioning for left-handed shooters, this ambidextrous design features dual-sided activation points. The enlarged paddle surfaces provide 40% more contact area than mil-spec releases. CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with Type III hard anodizing, it withstands repeated use under demanding conditions while maintaining precise tolerances.
Key Features
- Dual-sided paddle design for true ambidextrous operation
- CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hard anodizing
- Enlarged contact surfaces for positive engagement with gloves or bare hands
- Drop-in installation compatible with mil-spec AR-15 and M16 lower receivers
- Matte black finish matches standard military specifications
- Maintains original magazine release spring and detent compatibility
- Low-profile design prevents accidental activation during handling
Competitive shooters benefit from faster magazine changes regardless of shooting position or hand dominance. Law enforcement and military personnel gain tactical flexibility during high-stress situations where support-hand magazine manipulation becomes necessary. The enhanced surface area reduces fumbling during gloved operation in cold weather conditions.
