Purchased for aero m5 lower - Strike Industries Enhanced AR-10 Lower Parts Kit

I was interested in a kit that included an enhanced bolt catch and ambi safety as the proximity to ar maglocks kingpin makes hitting the left side safety unwieldy for me.

To me the strike safety has a nicer operation than my radian talon. It also has a much sharper ridge than the radian which may help with traction but it is noticeably sharper. That extra traction did make using the left side with my thumb easier so comfort aside I’ll call that a pro.

I had read that the kits pivot and takedown pins would fit will with the aero m5 lower and it did. The pivot pin is noticeably stiffer to operate initially but I think it’s already eased just a bit. It protrudes just the right amount on the left side of what I had read was the wider Aero m5 lower.
