I'm in the process of building my first AR15 and I would like to make it completely AMBI. The lower and upper receiver are going to be right handed, but I'm going to have an ambi mag release, bolt switch (BAD lever) and safety switch.
The issue is the ambi mag release with an ambi bolt release switch, specifically a BAD lever. I know Troy makes an ambi mag release that is completely compatible with their BAD lever. It also seems that a Norgon ambi mag release is compatible with the magpul lever and possibly also the Troy, although I've heard some people with shorter fingers have to in a way reach around the lever to compress the norgon.
As far as Phase 5 bad lever, it appears that it's too far out from the receiver for it to be compatible with a norgon mag button.
But what about a Knights Armament mag button? It does indent into the receiver just below where the bolt release is. Would a mag lever fit right where the intention is? Also I can look at pictures and videos all I want, but I'd like to hear some personal experience with which ambi mag releases and BAD levers go well together and which ones are physically imcompatible.
Thanks.
