If anyone’s looking for an extended lever release that doesn’t look retarded and doesn’t cost a million dollars I just came across these little numbers. I’m going to try one out.

And here’s a handy clip of a bloke installing one.
I spoke with the bloke in my above post and he said he was going to make a small run of his extended levers for lefties, so the lever will stay on the original side to be easily thumb activated (like his original one does for righties).
Yesterday he texted me saying the batch was now going ahead and people can order them now and will be getting sent out mid June after returning from anodizing.
Lever will not work on gen1 515.
The pivot pin and lever are attached differently. Basically, if your shroud is not mlok, it’s not going to work. Checked…
Other than that, have handled one, it’s alright.
So my extended lever for “Lefties” arrived. It was a bit later than expected, but Alin did get in touch to let me know of the delays and updates, so I can’t complain about the service. I like the look & fit, it looks factory & doesn’t scream “look at me”.
Have you tried it out?
Looks like it should work well.
No not yet, it’s typical, I went away shooting last weekend and the bloody thing arrived yesterday. I knew Alin had posted it too and had my fingers crossed.
Being such a long lever it’s increased the length of movement to activate it a fair bit, but when dry firing & playing with it I can leave my thumb on it comfortably the entire time so hopefully it’ll work & be quick & easy. I’ll try to get it to the range next week.
