The Strike Industries ARSSFLIPBL Flip Switch transforms standard AR-15 safety operation with dual throw angles and ambidextrous controls. This precision-machined safety selector eliminates the limitations of factory components while providing enhanced manipulation speed for competitive and tactical applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard 90-degree safety selectors, this unit offers both 60-degree and 90-degree throw options to accommodate different shooting positions and user preferences. The ambidextrous design features levers on both sides of the receiver, allowing immediate safety manipulation regardless of shooting hand or position. CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with Type III hard anodizing, it delivers superior durability compared to standard mil-spec components.
Key Features
- Dual 60/90-degree throw angles for versatile operation
- True ambidextrous design with bilateral lever placement
- 7075-T6 aluminum construction with blue anodized finish
- Drop-in installation compatible with mil-spec AR-15/AR-10 platforms
- Precision-machined detent positions for positive engagement
- Low-profile design prevents snagging on gear or clothing
- Textured lever surfaces for secure grip in all conditions
Performance testing demonstrates consistent detent engagement across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F. The shorter 60-degree throw reduces finger travel time by approximately 30% compared to standard selectors, providing measurable advantages in competitive shooting scenarios. Both throw angles maintain positive lock-up with audible and tactile feedback for confirmation of safe/fire positions.
