The Forward Controls Design EMR-A is a ambidextrous magazine release for 5.56 AR15 receivers. The placement of its lever is designed to closely mirror the magazine release button on the ejection port side of the receiver. The portion immediately below the bolt catch's lower paddle has a lower profile to avoid interference, a common drawback of popular ambidextrous mag catches, it is also left smooth. The Extended Lever (about 0.09" longer than standard) is for users with small hands or shorter fingers. For duty/defense AR’s the standard lever is recommended. A 10.9lb rated magazine catch spring is included with each EMR-A to reduce the risk of accidental/unintended mag drops that can take place if a user slings their weapon, or the EMR-A comes in contact with any gear such as Mag Pouches, etc.

Note:

Do not use anti-rotation pins. Most anti walk pins are not compatible with the EMR-A.
EMR-A are not recommended for AR10’s
EMR-A was designed for TDP spec forged lower receivers, EMR-A may not be compatible in billet lowers with thick walls.
Incompatibilities:
Due to lack of standards for 308 ARs, EMR-A will not work with all 308 AR style lowers.
Geissele's Maritime Bolt Catch. Material from either the top edge of EMR-A's lever, or the bottom edge of Maritime Bolt Catch's lower paddle may need to be removed for both to work together. The close proximity of these two control surfaces makes this combination less than ideal.
CMC's anti walk pins
KNS Gen 2 anti-rotation trigger/hammer pins
