Is this what you are talking about: http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/bolt-parts/bolt-hardware/bolt-stops/m14-m1a-extended-bolt-stop-prod22187.aspx. As long as you know what you are doing, installation is straight forward.

So with a simple tap on it and the bolt slams shut? I didn't know they made those.

Been around for sometime. I have had them on my M14s for about five years. I see Brownells is out of stock on these so you may want to go directly to Smith Enterprise. Here is a link to the data sheet on their bolt hold open http://www.smithenterprise.com/spec/M14_EBS_Retail.03.pdf

I see the advantage of something like that on an AR where the manipulation of the CH is cumbersome.

I've tried a couple different "extended bolt stop" devices.... And I've always gone back to OEM as the gains just aren't there... It's way easier to just tap the bolt handle to the rear and "let fly"...

Mag-wedge (site sponsor) makes and sells a similar product.

If you want a Canadian source, Magwedge makes there own, and I'd recommend it.

It's a handy little thing, but I often just rack the handle out of habit.

Every time you lay it down the bolt slams shut

I have an SEI one. I prefer pressing it over pulling back on the charging handle. Rock the mag in, press, and go on target, vs rock the mag in, pull back charging handle, get firing hand in the correct position, and go on target.

I've got similar feelings, I very much dislike taking my trigger hand off to let the action forward. My only dissapointment is that I can't depress it with an empty magazine loaded like an AR, but that's a magazine issue, not a release issue.

That's why there are two hands for the most part, rotate 90°, small tap on the handle, done. But it is very quick to just push the button, if my muscle memory doesn't get me first.

Not that easy on my M14, she's a big heavy beast.

Especially when you have optics mounted as most M14 owners do.
