A California Gun Owner's Review of Anderson Manufacturing AR15 Ambidextrous Safety Selector

In preparation for upcoming CA laws banning the "bullet button," I opted to make a featureless rifle out of my Sport 2 AR-15 rather than install a mag lock requiring me to detach the upper receiver to simply reload the rifle. With the removal of my pistol grip and installation of my Hammerhead (non-pistol) grip, however, all of the fingers on my right hand are now restricted to the right side of my rifle. That's where this part comes in handy. I no longer have to reach all the way around the rifle to engage the safety, all I need now is a flick of my thumb. That means there's one less step to put the gun in "safe" mode, meaning it's much simpler and much safer. I would of course recommend this product to any others building a featureless AR-15, or even people who share or rent their ARs and need to account for both left and right-handed shooters.

My one complaint is as follows: the item took over a month from the time my order was placed to when it was actually delivered. I believe that OpticsPlanet does not normally have this product on hand and orders direct from the vendor. In my case that was okay as I don't use my rifle every day, however, others might find this to be quite an inconvenience.
