Forged from 7075 aluminum with high-efficiency side gas vents, it locks up reliably via a hidden spring that engages the upper receiver’s charging handle channel—using the natural radius of the slot to reduce wear compared to the sharp 90° latch area on standard designs. The enlarged, flat spring bearing surface spreads force over a wider area than ball-bearing styles, boosting durability and service life. With no external latch or moving parts to catch on gear, it offers a smooth, comfortable interface and a solid platform for optional ISO Tabs when running large optics or gloves. Features - Ambidextrous, latchless architecture for clean, snag-free operation - Hidden spring mechanism uses receiver channel radius for reliable lockup and reduced wear - Flat spring bearing surface distributes load for improved longevity - High-efficiency side gas venting - Forged 7075 aluminum construction for strength with low weight - Compatible with ISO Tabs (add-on) to increase grasping surface Specifications - Net weight: 0.9 oz ** WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
