AR-15 Extended Mag Release – Faster Reloads with Enhanced Control

Speed matters — especially when every second counts. Upgrading to an AR-15 extended mag release gives you faster reloads, better ergonomics, and improved handling without compromising reliability.

Whether you're building a competition rifle, a duty-ready carbine, or just want a smoother reload under stress, an extended mag release is a smart and affordable upgrade.

Why Choose an Extended Magazine Release for Your AR-15?

A standard AR-15 magazine release does the job, but it often requires you to shift your grip — especially under pressure. An extended mag release button brings the control surface closer to your trigger finger, allowing you to drop mags faster and more confidently.

Key Benefits:

Faster reloads without repositioning your hand
Larger surface area for easier activation
Ideal for gloved use or high-stress environments
Drop-in installation on Mil-Spec AR-15 lowers
Available in black, red, FDE, and anodized finishes

Whether you’re on the range, in a match, or setting up a personal defense rifle, this upgrade gives you a performance edge.

Built for Compatibility and Reliability

Our extended magazine releases are designed to work with standard AR-15 lower receivers. They’re CNC-machined from quality materials like 6061 or 7075 aluminum and coated for corrosion resistance and durability.

Some models include:

Textured buttons for positive feel
Lightweight designs that won’t interfere with other controls
Oversized or competition-specific variants for fast manipulation

Installation takes just a few minutes — no gunsmithing needed.

Ideal Use Cases

Competition shooters looking for every possible speed advantage
Tactical users who need quick reloads in gloves or gear
Left-handed shooters pairing it with ambidextrous lowers
Everyday users seeking better ergonomics and function
