Why Upgrade to A Benelli M4 Bolt Release Tab?
The stock OEM bolt release button is very small, and hard to place during high stress, or fast operation. The Benelli M4 Bolt Release Tab provides surface area to place 3 fingers on the release. It is naturally easy to find with your fingers, to release the bolt as quickly as possible. Other bolt release devices such as a “Bolt Release Pad”, usually require gunsmiths to drill and tap the button to install the device. This costs additional money and time. In addition, should this type of device fail from catching on a hard surface. This can also damage the internal bolt release functionality of the Benelli M4.
If the Bolt Release Tab catches and breaks on a hard surface in the same situation, the small OEM bolt release button, and function, remain intact. For this reason, the bolt release tab can be a better product which can ensure no damage to your firearm in the event of a damaged failure.

I was not happy with the factory bolt release that came as original equipment on my Benelli. It was about the size of a pencil eraser and sometimes are to find. This bolt release tab was very easy to install and works great.

The Benelli M4 bolt release tab fits my MAC 1014 perfectly and is a game changer! That little button was a serious PITA to press – anyone with a MAC 1014 knows exactly what I’m talking about. This simple little tab fits perfectly between the plastic barrel guard and the receiever and makes it incredibly easy to release the bolt from either hand while holding the shotgun in many different ways. Highest recommendation!

I used the Strike Industries Hayl rail with this release tab, and I did have to remove some material from the Hayl slot to fit this properly. No issues to make it fit with a Dremel. The set screw on the rail works very well to hold the tab in place. Super fun to use this tab, an excellent upgrade.
Jasen (verified owner) –
I ordered this for a MAC 1014. This product fit and function very(too) well. The instal was as simple as loosening the tube retainer cap and pulling the hand guard a bit, sliding the tab in place and retightening the cap. Now I have to be very cognizant where I place my paws because it is easy to activate that release. Nice product.

I give it a 4 our of 5 rating. I had to dremel the aftermarket handguard (not your fault) and I am not certain if the barrel is flush with the receiver until I test fire it and check for malfunction ( which I have not done yet). I also believe for what I paid for it, it was a bit overpriced for what it is. I am not saying this as a negative aspect as it does serve its purpose and does function and looks good on the rifle itself. It probably fits better on a factory handguard which I did not try. All and all it is a nice product.

Shipping from Canada took a while but I could always check the status. The tab works great. Just unscrew the mag tube nut a bit and place the tab in the gap below the forearm (clip it on the retaining band), then tighten. I had to be a little forceful when closing my forearms because the gun is new. I would recommend this to anyone.

Their products are the best quality and unique built solid to handle aggressive repeated use. I continue to buy more products from Rx Arms as I can completely depend on them without any doubts or concerns. I have recommended at least two other close friends to them – and they as well have bought and are impressed with the quality competency and reliability of their parts and craftsmanship.

I had a little trouble fitting this bolt release tab to my MAC 1014 M4 clone. It is no fault of the component, it just seems that my front hand guards fit too tight and when the release tab is inserted the barrel doesn’t quite seat home all the way. I’m sure a little filing of the plastic hand guard would resolve the issue.

I bought one of these, tried to install it on the receiver, of course it didn’t fit. When Robb contacted me about a review, I responded as such. He very politely informed me it attached to the handguard retaining ring (which I should’ve seen) and offered to send another free of charge. I took him up on his offer, it arrived yesterday, and fits perfectly! Works the little butto under it just like it should.
But here’s the good part: after I accepted his offer, Robb told me it would be a few days until he could send it BECAUSE HE WAS ON VACATION!. He took time out from his vacation to address my lack of attention, and solve my problem! You don’t find that kind of service anymore!

I have a turknelli with a Midwest industries handguard, and the bolt release tab fits. There’s a slight amount of wiggle up and down, but I attribute that to the handguard material being thicker than the OEM plastic one so it doesn’t sit quite as flush as it should. Doesn’t affect the operation of the safety, and doesn’t move out of position. Quick cheap easy solution! Great product

Very happy with my purchase. Very handy little upgrade. I think the coolest part about the bolt release tab is it’s retained between the handguard and the metal shim that holds the handguard in place. I didn’t want to permanently alter or replace the original bolt release button on my M4. So the fact that you can quickly install and uninstall this part without having to take the receiver apart is an awesome design. It’s much easier to activate the bolt release and quickly find it too. I also purchased the M4 tube extension and the titanium magazine tube end cap. I would highly recommend adding both to your cart.

Hey Paul, I’ve tried to contact you numerous times about this. If the tab is installed correctly, it is impossible for it to fall off, due to it being secured to the gun, clipped around the forearm retaining band. The OEM handguard when installed will prevent it from coming loose. Please contact me if you need help trouble shooting the issue.

10/10 recommend! This makes releasing the bolt as easy as it should have been from factory. on my M4 the bolt release was very stuff to push and was not always something that could be done from any grip position, with the RX Arms bolt release no matter my grip its easy to drop the bolt and get to shooting.

I was finally able to purchase a M4. Being expensive and one of my dream guns. I did a lot of research and was very careful as to what I added / changed on the gun.
This tab was a no brainer. Easy to install and you don’t have to mess with the internals of the weapon. This tab is also larger and easier to locate by feel than most aftermarket buttons. The only thing I would possibly change would be to maybe add a little stippling on the end of the tab.

Good quality, fit my Canuck Operator perfectly. Makes the bolt release much easier to push and very easy to find for way quicker consistent reload speeds. Wish it was a little less expensive for such a small piece, but is a must have for me and therefore is still well worth it.

I have the same advice as everyone else – there’s a “sweet spot” for the location of the tab, and then everything installs with one quick click. Looks great and is unobtrusive. Works fantastic, and no gunsmithing or bolt release disassembly required.

Quality piece, I’ve tried both this and S&J tabs, I prefer this one as it’s a bit stiffer and doesn’t flex quite as much. I did copy what S&J did with the grip tape strip and it’s good to go. For the cost of this why would anyone suffer from the tiny button on the stock M4, you have zero to lose by installing this, it takes 2 mins to install and will dramatically improve your experience.

Installing the bolt release tab was quick and simple. There will be no more fumbling for the tiny little factory bolt repair button during tactical reload drills and possibly injuring your finger…which happened to me, meh. I’m retired Federal LE and was issued the tactical Remington 870 pump shotgun for over 20 years, so wasn’t used to practicing with a semi-automatic. I’m up to speed now with the Benelli M4, especially now that I have the RX bolt release tab making tactical quick loads simpler. For the brothers and sisters of USA, be patient with the delayed delivery. Robb of RX Arms is trying to improve the delivery method but, expect it to be in customs time-out for awhile. Not Robb’s fault, you can blame our Gov and USPS snail mail service for the added time. Overall, I highly recommend if you want to give your M4 a K.I.S.S. device to enhance its performance.

Very ingenious addition to combat the small bolt release design of stock M4. It is made very well and I appreciate the simplicity to the install. May require a little filing of hand guard material for perfect fit though.

Hey Justin, handguard material removal is not needed for the tab to function properly, and barrel to seat fully. However if you don’t like the small gap that is created one can definitely remove material there for asthetic purposes.

Anonymous (verified owner) –
I am a few months overdue to write this review for this superlative product.
Sometimes a simple solution is the best, and this bolt release tab by Rx is the epitome of that.
Initially, I was skeptical of the design. However, having installed it and used it for 3 months, it has absolutely grown on me. I am now of the opinion that this is a best-in-breed design.
What I like about this product:
1. Creates a broad but non-intrusive, engagement surface that allows for easy intentional (but not accidental) activation of the bolt release from many different hand positions, and with either my strong-side or weak-side hand. This has dramatically increased my speed for operating my Benelli M4 SBS, and by feel only.
I can release the bolt with finger pressure along the entire, horizontal length of the Rx tab. Ergonomically and “tactically”, this is very useful.
Because of the extremely thin profile (depth) of the Rx tab, there is no more likelihood of accidentally activating the bolt release than with the standard, un-enhanced, bolt release.
2. All the other market designs that put a head that bolts / threads into the bolt-release button are essentially huge levers for snagging and then breaking off the bolt-release button. This, especially because the bolt-release button actually protrudes at an angle, creating a huge gap (on the side toward the user) between the receiver and any bolted-on head.
The Rx tab is very high quality spring steel that can deform substantially and yet return to exact, original spec. So, if you happen to get a strap caught into the gap between the tab and receiver, you’ll be able to dislodge it without damaging the tab or the bolt-release button.
On my Benelli M4, I have a speed-loader guide mounted at the rear of the receiver opening, around the takedown cross-bolt / shaft. This guide creates a slight relief behind my Rx tab that prevents anything from getting snagged underneath it. This just happens to be a fortuitous coincidence.
3. The installation and removal of the Rx tab is ridiculously simple, yet effective. You just tuck the lip into the rear ferrule for retaining the stock forearm (handguard halves) and then push in the forearm furniture to secure the tab in place via a friction fit. The tab does not tear up your handguard ferrule or handguards.
It does not take the fit of your forearm handguard out of spec. So, if you hear the gas pistons knocking around when you tilt your Benelli M4 — those noises were always there, you just never noticed until now. Fact: the factory Argo gas system requires some free movement on the pistons.
Removal of the tab is as simple as pulling off your handguard. Do note that the spring steel on the tab will cause it to rebound and fly out when the pressure from the handguard is removed, and this could ding your receiver. Easy remedies are to be less abrupt when removing your handguard, or to remove your handguard with the tab and [right-side] receiver facing down a foot away from a soft or padded surface.
4. Being retained on the handguard ferrule, you have ample room to adjust the vertical placement of your Rx bolt-release tab alongside your receiver. I prefer a lower placement just a couple millimeters above the bottom bevel of the receiver. This ensures that my hand does not come into contact with the bolt-handle as I release the bolt.
5. The spring steel on the Rx tab has extremely high tensile strength. It clearly has been heat treated. There is no way any of these tabs are going to fatigue even with multiple lifetimes and generations of heavy use.
I am really impressed with how Rx was able to form the precise bends in the tab to form the clip-on portion in such high-tensile strength steel. “Somebody” at Rx has some serious skills in metal fabrication.
6. The finish appears to be some form of nitriding with a top coat of Cerakote. The Cerakote is applied very uniformly with a satin matte finish that makes the part visually “disappear” into the black anodized receiver. It is also very durable, and my Rx bolt-release tab has shown no stress flaking or chipping on the finish and has not developed any shiny spots on the flats or pressure wear along the edges in 3 months of extensive use.
On the underside, of the tab, I applied a thin disk that I stamped out of UHMWPE (polymer) with an adhesive backing. I positioned this disk between the tab and the head of the bolt-release button. This arrangement removes practically any friction and galling between the hardened steels of the tab and the bolt-release button. It makes the bolt release absolutely “delicious” — perfectly controlled, predictable and crisp, like snapping tiny glass rods.
In conclusion, this Rx bolt-release tab is, in my opinion, the best, most versatile, bolt-release system for the Benelli M4 — and via an ingeniously simple design, almost ridiculously low cost, and drop-in configuration not requiring dedicated gunsmithing.
I am aware that another maker invented the bolt-release tab concept, with a design that precedes the Rx one. However, in my opinion, its overall quality is no match for the release tabs by Rx.
I highly recommend the Rx bolt-release tab for the Benelli M4 shotguns, and prefer it over the other much more expensive solutions I have tried.
— S.T. in the U.S.A.
Robb Hutzal (store manager) –
Thanks for the in depth review S.T. Yes, I am that “someone” who makes these tabs by hand. Hand made fabrication is required due to the extreme hard temper of the steel.

Cool product! simple and robust, had to cut a little slot in my forend to fit the part but otherwise installation was easy. Really increases bolt release button surface area.

This is ingenious and worth the investment. It is high quality and makes operating the release effortless. Pick up the charging handle as well, you won’t be disappointed.

Product works as advertised (it is a bent piece of metal, after all)Great customer service, and communication throughout. My package was initially returned to sender as the wrong address was entered on my end. They reached out to me, confirmed the correct product and I had it in hand in just a couple days. 10/10 would order again.

This looks good and works perfectly. I was planning to use the GG&G model, but it is at least 4 times the price, if you can get your hands on one. The slick design and quick installation make this the way to go.

Great replacement for the OEM bolt release. It is easy to install and looks great. Arrives quickly and is well packaged.

Purchased this item a year + ago as soon as they came back in stock after adding my name to the waitlist. The simplicity of it is where the genius is, instead of having to remove springs and parts, just a quick drop in that makes releasing the bolt so much easier on a variety of orientations.

This little piece of metal is simple, it is inexpensive, and it works. The is NO REASON not to get it. Shipped quickly, good service.

Benelli M4 Bolt Release Tab.
It’s funny how little things can make such a big difference. For me, the Benelli button was so painful to operate I had to change my grip to get it.
I tried a bigger button with a terraced featcher. It was no easier to operate and still hurt my fingers.
This tab looks so – – – wrong. BUT, the price was right so I bought one.
It came promptly but looking at the directions I did not how it could work.
But work it did! Perfectly and with minimum pressure.
One thing: mount it low. If it’s too high the bolt operating handle will hit you fingers.
Buy it. You’ll like it.

Received it quick!!! Excellent fit and function. Just what i was looking for without all the other jazz from similar companies. Highly recommended.
Mike Strong –
I love this bolt release alot especially when I am wearing gloves. You can hit it in the dark. Unlike just having that little button…
Buy this and you will be happy. Easy installation as well.

Looks legit and works perfect.
Bryan –
I went with this tab instead of a traditional style of oversized release. It looks 10x better IMO, and works/looks better than S&J’s tab, which I also had, which scratched the paint on my receiver.
Steve –
Way better then the original, exactly what I was after.
Henry Eng –
Outstanding product. Makes it much easier to release bolt.
Winston –
Breathtaking
Jim –
Excellent product. Simple to install and makes releasing the bolt much easier and more convenient. I’m using it on a Canuck Operator, a Turkish M4 clone, and it fits and works perfectly.
Joel –
Great product. Like it alot better then the factory one and other oversized bolt release. Shipped fast.
John –
makes hitting bolt release that much easier without committing to replace the factory bolt release, if this thing ever fails, say at the end of the spring steel’s life span(which will outlive the gun and you probably), you can just take the handguard off and get rid of it
beware because the steel used is much much harder than the aluminum receiver of the m4, when taking the handguard off it will drop free, so if you are not careful it will scratch up your finish with the might of god himself
Pat B. –
Work amazing, a must have. Love the simple design and rounded corners.

If you find the OEM bolt release too small for your liking this is the best solution. Wide surface area and well made. It requires no modification to the gun unlike other “oversized release” buttons which require you to either replace some internals or drill and tap the existing button. An additional benefit is that is that should the release become snagged on something it will not damage the gun because it only rests over the mechanism instead of being bolted on. It may seem a bit pricy for what it is but it’s significantly cheaper (and better) than other market offerings.

Arrived quickly. Easy to install and works perfectly. Looks good too.

Excellent product…..the bolt release tab is much better than the factory button.
