great
fit and feel is perfect, lever size is just right.
Nice parts that work
I'm a southpaw so I Bought these to upgrade a recent build kit. I used these Seekens parts in another build and I like to stick with what works well. I also like the 60/90 throw choice the safety offers.
Works in Seekins lowers
The price point for what you get makes it well worth it. I use them in the Seekins lowers and they work as intended.
Suprised!
I did not actually read the product description nor reviews when i ordered it. I thought it was just a regular ambi safety with fancy arms. When i got it, i realized that it has 2 safety groove cut in it, 1 side is the regular 90 degree cut and the other side is 60 degree short throw cut. That is a bonus for me as i have both regular marked lowers and 60 degree sts marked lowers. I did not experienced any fitment issue that other reviewers have. It fitted my Noveske, aero precision, armalite and spike tactical lowers. It is a tighter fit in my Noveske, which i believe has everything to do with the fact that Noveske cerakote and anodize all their lowers. I will be buying a few more of these.
Well made, easy install, good fit.
Purchased two of these in black. Installed one in a Palmetto AR9 and the other in a Palmetto AR15. Both went in without difficulty, look good, and operate well. I shoot left-handed and this product makes manipulating the safety much easier.
Great product
Super easy to install, especially liked the way you can switch the controls to be 60 or 90 degrees just by turning over the base. Way better pricing than other versions on the market.
Great for lefties
Great ambi safety. Nice to have the 60% or 90% option to.
Works for me.
I purchased this product based on past experience with the manufacturer and I was looking for a diamond pattern ambidextrous safety, did not realize that it was a 60 degree or 90 degree throw. Easy drop in product for my billet lower. Pleasantly surprised to discover the 60 degree throw. Works great, looks good, easy install.
Didn't fit on two different rifles.
This is my 3rd Seekins ambi safety and I've been pleased up to this point. The first two I purchased were installed on Palmetto State Armory lowers and they went in and function without issue. Based on those experiences I purchased a 3rd Seekins for use on a factory Daniel Defense rifle. The safety seems a bit overlarge in diameter as it was very tight when inserted in the first hole in the receiver, and could not be pushed all the way to the other side. I then tried to install the safety on a factory Armalite rifle, and again would not fit. Fortunately I had another rifle with a Palmetto receiver that had a CAA ambi safety installed. I removed the CAA and installed the Seekins in the Palmetto without difficulty. The CAA safety was then installed in the Armalite rifle without difficulty. I could have done a bit of careful fitting and probably gotten the Seekins to fit in the Armalite and Daniel Defense but I don't really want to be sanding on an anodized part.
Maybe not.
Safety was mot mil spec diameter. Would not fit at all in hole, when standard mil spec single selector safety dropped right in. Had to auger it into both holes so it milled out some of the aluminum lower receiver. Finally took an emery cloth to it and filed it down on both ends of the shaft. Put the lower together and it wouldn't go full 12 o'clock to release the trigger without using your thumb to give it that extra millimeter(s). Bad tetent channel maybe? Took it out and reversed it so it's now a short throw.... now it works, but a lot or work and not a cheap safety for the trouble it gave me.
