Who makes a tactical bolt catch compatable with RRA??

The DPMS one I tried to install did not work properly.

Thanks!

Not sure what you mean by tactical bolt catch...the only non-standard bolt catch thaT I've tried is the one that I can think of is from Wilson Combat, which has worked fine.

Here is what I am talking about:

The Wilson is oversized only on the release portion.

I've seen that style before, but didn't try it. How didn't it work?

I have used the DPMS one on many lower receivers, Rock Rivers arms gun would be no different.

Yup. I've installed dozens of those latches, many on RRA receivers. There's no reason it wouldn't work, if installed correctly.

I removed the factory one from RRA and installed the DPMS exactly the same way.

For some reason the DPMS would not hold the bolt back without constant pressure on the lower tab. I have talked to DPMS and they are going to send me a new one.

I will update this thread later after I get the new one.
