    AR10 large bolt release

    I have some dexterity issues that necessitate some more ergonomic controls. I use the Geissele Maritime Bolt Catch on my AR's and it's perfect. Does anyone make something with a similar profile for an AR10?

    For reference, this is the Geissele Maritime Bolt Catch: https://geissele.com/maritime-bolt-catch.html

    You can use that on an AR10. At least, mine are the same.

    What brand lower do you have? How did it install? Could you send me a picture? I would greatly appreciate it!

    It's a first gen DPMS lower. Installed just like a standard bolt catch. Will dig it out of the safe when I get a moment.

    It’s not the same, but I got an LMT MWS bolt catch to use on a 308 build. Has some large serrations.
    Not sure that a regular AR bolt catch will work or at least work in all types of large frame AR’s.

    You can try a Magpul BAD or Troy lever.





    This is a Smith Battle Bar:



    You could also try an LMT MARS-H lower, but then you might need to change your upper, too.

    Most LPG items fit on AR10 same as AR15, that should be the same. There are no AR10 LPK for sale, but it could be a thing. I have built out several lowers in LMT MWS and always just bought a LPK.

    Good luck.

    Battle Arms Development makes a .308 bolt catch very similar to the Maritime bolt catch.

    I used this on a 308 AR build using Aero upper/lower. It works great where outside clearance issues prevent using a BAD lever.
