Product was easily installed. Did not come with Allen wrench, so make sure you have the right one. I'm right handed and when shooting left handed I was able to use safety switch with a little effort, but should become easier with practice. Would recommend.

I bought this selector for "correct" appearance on an M4A1 clone. The detent snaps positively into place at the stops on this selector, but it feels and sounds like there's gravel in it when moving between the stops. Upon closer inspection, the groove that the detent rides in looks like it was gnawed out with a dull butter knife. There are pits and ridges that are never going "break in" and allow smooth operation. Since I'm past the return date and out $23, I'll have to try to smooth it out with a die grinder. Or throw it away. I should have paid attention to the previous reviews and not bought this junk.
Would recommend: No

I purchased this to put on an AR pistol build. I had heard that using an M16 selector with a semi auto fire control group will give you two safety points at the 3 oclock and 9 oclock positions. This gives you a choice when training. It isn't a full 90 degree selector. It falls somewhere between 45 and 90 degrees. It is a bit gritty, but, as with some of my other selectors, I'm sure it will smooth out once it's worn in a bit. If you're looking for an M16 select fire safety, they're hard to find. As long as you don't possess the select fire control group, this is a nice addition to a build. I Think I will buy another one for my SPR build.
Best Used for:
dual safety positions on semi auto build
Would recommend: Yes
