I guess my AR10 lower parts came with an AR15 mag catch.

I'm having trouble locating the longer mag catch by itself...anyone have a good resource? Thanks.

What is the difference between the bullet button, prince50 and the radlock?

The bullet button can only drop the magazine with the use of a tool.

The Prince50 cannot drop the magazine, unless it is unscrewed and set as a mag drop button (in which case, it's an AW). The user must top feed to reload.


The Raddlock has 2 functions. In the 1st setting, it acts as a bullet button and mags can be dropped with the use of a tool. In the 2nd setting, it is a fully functional mag release button. All that is required to go from setting 1 to setting 2 is a couple turns with a small key supplied w/ the Raddlock.

I just bought my second Raddlock (for my second AR build) the other day. Great job Radd.

Hey Mr C, where did you purchase your Raddlock from & how much was it if I may ask please?
Thanx

I just found out that the bullet button has a tool called the "wonder tool". Similar to the raddlock. You just screw it on top of the bullet button i believe and it works as a fully functional mag release.

Hey Radd,
How about one for the prototype maglock, for the KRISS that you're working on for Titus7?? I would help with the investment in that option......

Radd,

Had a lot of trouble putting the lock into use, had to take it apart to swap the springs this made it work smooth. The original internal spring looks like it was cut from a longer spring and was binding up the mag release but now all works really well.

Gotta bring this back. I've used the BB for a while now and just got a Raddlock today for my newest AR and it's awesome. Far better than a Prince50 BB w/ Freelock to me, and cheaper! Well done and thanks!
