Description
JP Enhanced Bolt Catch is a refined upgrade over the standard AR bolt catch, delivering superior ergonomics, control, and build quality across multiple platforms. Whether you're running a .223/5.56 AR-15, a .22 LR rimfire conversion, or a .308 large-frame rifle, JP's bolt catch offers unmatched precision and functionality.
Manufactured from premium 8620 billet steel, each catch features enlarged, textured paddles for better tactile feedback and faster manipulation. Tight tolerance machining ensures a snug, slop-free fit on your lower receiver.
