The Odin Works G2 Extended Magazine Release for AR-15 – Cerakote Flat Dark Earth, 6061 Aluminum (ACCXMR2FDE, UPC: 856205005483) is a premium upgrade for shooters who want faster, more intuitive reloads without breaking their firing grip. Machined from lightweight billet 6061 aluminum and finished in tough FDE Cerakote, this Gen 2 XMR (eXtended Magazine Release) gives your AR-15 a larger, easier-to-hit button that’s compatible with the popular Magpul BAD Lever and many AR-15/AR-10 lower receivers.
If you’re building or upgrading a modern tactical carbine, 3-Gun rifle, or duty-ready AR, the Odin Works G2 Extended Mag Release in Flat Dark Earth is a small part that delivers a big boost in speed and ergonomics.
Faster, Easier Reloads Without Changing Your Grip
The whole point of the XMR2 is simple: hit the mag release quicker and more confidently. Compared to a mil-spec button, the G2 Extended Magazine Release offers:
A much larger surface area that’s easier to find under stress or with gloves.
An ergonomic, contoured paddle that guides your finger into the right spot and reduces slip.
The ability to drop a magazine without drastically shifting your firing grip or breaking your sight picture.
That means faster, more consistent reloads in competition, training, and real-world scenarios.
Gen 2 Design – Now Compatible with Magpul BAD Lever
Shooters asked for an extended mag release that would play nicely with the Magpul BAD Lever, and Odin Works delivered with the Gen 2 XMR:
Specifically designed so it works with the Magpul BAD Lever on many setups.
Retains a slim, snag-resistant profile while still being easy to hit.
Note: Odin Works notes that it will not work with some anti-walk pins unless the XMR2 is modified, so check your build configuration.
For shooters running a BAD Lever for bolt lock/bolt release, the XMR2 is the extended mag release designed with your configuration in mind.
Lightweight 6061 Billet Aluminum with Cerakote FDE Finish
The ACCXMR2FDE model is built from 6061 billet aluminum for strength without excess weight:
Material: 6061 aluminum – tough, corrosion-resistant, and lightweight.
Finish: Cerakote Flat Dark Earth – durable, low-glare, and perfect for FDE/two-tone builds.
Weight: Approximately 0.1 oz including paddle, button, and screws, so it won’t upset your rifle’s balance.
The tight machining and FDE finish give your lower a clean, professional look that complements modern furniture and rail systems.
Compatible with AR-15 and Many AR-10 Lowers
The Odin Works G2 Extended Mag Release is designed to work with popular AR platforms:
Compatible with AR-15 lower receivers.
Also works with many AR-10 lowers, making it a versatile upgrade for multiple rifles.
If you run multiple ARs, you can standardize the feel of your magazine releases across your fleet.
Ergonomic, Contoured Shape for Positive Activation
Odin Works carved the XMR2 with their signature “boomerang” style cuts and ergonomic shape:
Contoured for positive depression, so your finger naturally presses in the right direction.
Designed to reduce slip, even in wet or gloved conditions.
Large enough for positive engagement, yet still low-profile enough to avoid accidental mag dumps or snagging on gear.
This is a purpose-built control that feels natural after just a few reps.
Simple Drop-In Installation – All Hardware Included
The Odin Works ACCXMR2FDE includes everything you need for installation:
Installation typically takes just a few minutes:
Ensure your rifle is unloaded and safe.
Remove the existing magazine catch and button.
Install the Odin Works catch and extended paddle per Odin’s instructions.
Function-test with an unloaded magazine to confirm positive lock and release.
No permanent modifications are required on most standard AR-15 lowers.
Ideal for 3-Gun, Competition, Tactical & Home Defense Builds
The Odin Works G2 Extended Magazine Release in FDE is a smart upgrade for:
3-Gun and competition rifles, where tenths of a second on reloads matter.
Tactical and home-defense AR-15s, where you want intuitive, gross-motor-friendly controls.
Training carbines, making it easier for new shooters or those with smaller hands to reach the mag release.
By enlarging the contact area and improving ergonomics, the XMR2 helps shooters of all sizes run their AR more efficiently.
