Best ambi safety options for featurless backfin

[Sparrow Dynamics]

I have Solar Tactical fins on all my featureless ARs.

I would LOVE to have an ambi safety for when I go to Nevada. I bought several Baddass Ambi safeties because people say they are the best. On two of my 8 rifles, the safety sheared off and broke during use. The screw was the problem. It just broke. I didn't over tighten it.

I immediately removed all the Baddass safeties and put Stag Arms left handed safeties on all my rifles.

I don't trust a safety with screws on it anymore.

Yes, that can be a problem with smaller weaker screws usually used on ambi safeties.

For that reason, we use American made screws that have twice the shear strength of the typical steel screws. 120,000 psi tensile strength, and Rockwell C32 hardness. They are called Torx Plus and also happen to have better tool engagement than normal torx screws for less stripping.

BUT, here is the important part of our design that makes it better than other ambi safeties with screws. --> If you notice, the lobular interface between the core shaft and the levers also completely remove any side (or shear) load, and also rocking motion (that can cause tensile load) that might cause the screw to shear or break. See images below.

It is a better design whether you live in California or Texas... whether you go featureless or fixed mag... whether you shoot right or left handed (or both).

I run a V7 57 degree ambi selector. Near perfect alignment with the grip and thumb can rest nicely on it.

I like the Radian Talon

I went with Seekins because I got a BOGO deal.

Realistically, it isn't really that hard to safe the rifle with your left hand. I have ambi's on my featureless AR's and I rarely use the right side safety.

Mall ninjas might whine, but really...first world problem. You aren't an operator. You can spare a second or two to safe the rifle.

I don't know if this helps OP out, but I ran through several different grip/safety setups in a comparison about a month ago. I ran through the pros and cons of each:

I have a BAD-CASS safety and one Griffin Armament Safety on both of my featureless rifles with grip wraps. the battle arms is smoother, but at $60 less, the griffin armament is pretty nice.
