    ambi selector switch rotation?

    OK, I installed an ambi switch, but would like to know how to keep it from rocking 180deg from safe. It doesn't look any different from the stock selector (other than it has a switch on both sides) and seems to lock into safe mode, but once in fire it's kind of loose and can rotate back 90deg from the fire position. Not a huge deal, I was just hoping the fit would be more like the stock selector.

    It should fit like the oem selector switch. Have you inspected the small detent and spring that holds the selector switch in place?

      Good call. Actually, the detent and spring were fine, I just installed the switch backwards so the detent had no channel to travel in and lock against. It was just rolling along the rounded surface on the other side. There is no fool like a tactifool.
