Strike Industries Enhanced Castle Nut and Extended End Plate

Product Overview

The Strike Industries Enhanced Castle Nut and Extended End Plate is a premium upgrade for AR receivers, designed to enhance the overall functionality and aesthetics of your weapon. This product combines the enhanced castle nut and extended end plate, providing a robust and sleek solution for your AR platform.

Features

Aesthetic Upgrade

The extended end plate and castle nut are designed to match, providing a cohesive and visually appealing upgrade. The steel castle nut is lengthened to support more of the receiver extension's threaded area, enhancing the overall look.

Quick Detach (QD) Mount

The extended end plate features a Quick Detach sling swivel mount, allowing for better weapon manipulations in tight spaces and under stress. This feature prevents the startling pain that can result from a pinched hand when using a sling attached to a standard, flat QD end plate.

Anti-Rotation Castle Nut

The updated castle nut includes an anti-rotation feature, ensuring that it remains securely in place during weapon usage. This feature is achieved through the use of a set screw that can be tightened to prevent the castle nut from backing out.

Additional QD Mounting Points

The Tribus version features two additional QD mounting points on the left and right sides of the extended end plate, providing a total of three QD mounting points. This enhanced design allows for greater flexibility in sling attachment options.

Extended End Plate

The extended end plate is designed to prevent pinching of the hand when using a sling attached, ensuring a comfortable grip and improved weapon control.
