    KAC 45 Degree Safety Conversion?!

    I have a Knight's Armament complete lower and love how the trigger and safety have the "KAC" engraved on it.

    Here's my problem, I love the feel of a short throw safety such has 45 or 60 degree. However if I go aftermarket like the Radian, I would have the Radian lever.

    My question is there any way to keep the KAC lever and use a 45/60 degree internal so that way I have short throw and get to keep the KAC levers.

    Please let me know what you guys think. thanks!

    I don't have experience fondling a KAC in person but doesn't look like it'd work with a Radian. Doesn't seem like it'd work; The Radian lever is dovetailed to slide onto the shaft. I'm assuming the left side of the KAC lever is mated to the shaft & then the right side is screwed on.

    Get the Radian-Talon. Feels & works fantastic. Plus, your hand will cover the lack of logo anyways

      Only if the lever and drum are separate pieces and use the same method to align/attach.
      If the KAC is one piece, there might be enough material to cut the drum off the KAC and machine the underside of the lever to slide on to a radian drum.
