Strike Industries ambi mag release in FDE is 10/10. Right side paddle is angled forward for trigger finger activation. FDE matches Magpul tan well. Both sides press cleanly. Drops in with the standard catch spring.
I have been wanting an ambi mag release that didnt look like an afterthought. The Strike Industries paddle on the right side is angled forward and easy to hit with the trigger finger. FDE color matches my Daniel Defense lower closely enough to look intentional.
