Phase 5 tactical bolt release

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Anyone with a sig 516 or another premium ar that has a ambidextrous mag release can't use a magpul bad lever. Well phase 5 has one you can.

Yeah ya do.

[Shawnmoore81 623]

If this is one of those little arguments your trying to start because technically you have to index out your finger slightly don't even bother

[High Exposure 5,664]

It's really not a bother

 

I use BAD levers. I have then on all of my carbines and I like them. But, to use them as intendedyour finger absolutely has to be off the trigger to manipulate the device to lock the bolt back or to let it go home.

 

Not trying to start an argument, little or otherwise - Just a point of order.

 

People that have no experience with these items and are seeking information may choose to use, or not to use them, based on what they read here.

 

Trigger finger discipline is paramount to firearms safety. As an instructor you should know that. When you teach your classes are you as cavalier regarding what constitutes finger on/off the trigger when instructing and reinforcing Rule 3?

HE, technically he is right! If you reach around and underneath with your left hand and push it you can keep your finger on the trigger LOL!

Shawn, there are those of us on this forum that prefer technical accuracy in the discussion and especially in the description on how to manipulate a product or device. Personally I dont run a BAD or otherwise as my AR's have a right side internal bolt release. But just looking at the pic you provided, it would seem clear you need to take your finger off the trigger to operate it. Which is why I certainly feel your statementon how you dont have to take your finger off the trigger is certainly suspect!

You are right Shane! I didn't think of that.

Way to be a pussy and not just grab a hold of yer sac, make sure you still have one, man up and correct yourself.....

[High Exposure 5,664]

Seriously Shawn. Attention to detail and personal responsibility are two very important parts of firearms ownership and firearms training. As is the maturity necessary to realize when you made a mistake and correct it.

 

What you said was flat out wrong. On top of that, even if you actually could manipulate the device while keeping your finger on the trigger you shouldn't as it would be unsafe to do so and break one of the cardinal rules of firearm safety.

 

If you can't see that for yourself then I don't know what to tell you other than it is a miracle that no one has been hurt in any of the classes you teach.

 

Take the criticism and drive on.

 

I love how instead of discussing the safety issue raised by your incorrect comment you turn it into "you guys ruined my thread :-("

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Actually I would have just deleted it but you can't. It's just nit picking. Like a bunch of friggin women

"Actually I would have just deleted it but you can't."

Yeah it seems like just hiding your mistake would go hand in hand with your view that finger on or off the trigger is nitpicking....

The women I know dont have an issue admitting their error, so what does that make you?

[Shawnmoore81 623]

The man for walking away

You sure arent walking away a man! Any man I know would have simply admitted they spoke in error. You would have prefered, by your own admission, to just delete and hide your mistake. It speaks volumes to me about you.
