Gauging intrest for drop in ambi safety

Hi Roger the big question for me is when will they be available?

In your post you mentioned something about 2 more months?
 
Thank you Tony :)

grg3d, as we've been catching up on backlogged selectors (which included all of them, 90 degree dovetailed and non-dovetailed, 45 degree dovetailed and non-dovetailed, M16 selectors, even levers), it shouldn't be much longer.

As Jon said, we had a rapid prototype made, but we are tweaking it a little. One would think it's just a matter of elongating the existing .223/.308 version, and the prototype was just that, but we found a few things that could be improved on.

2 months is on the long side, we know you guys have been waiting. We take a long time to develop a new product, because we don't want to rush to market something that we have to tweak later, by that time, customers will already have the original version and be left holding the bag :)
 
Here it is, the prototype, it looks like it's on a standard .223 AR :)

An update for those of you who are interested in this part, but reside outside of the USA. Due to International Traffic in Arms Regulations I will not be able to sell these outside of the USA. We may be able to sell these internationally down the road, but it will take time.
 
well... I like it....,
but.....
will not be purchasing for 2 reasons....
1 > I live in the uk, and as stated, they wont be traveling this far..
2 > Way Too Expensive ( imo) for an add on
also, when we could get these sent over, we would have to pay Excise duty on top, which would mean, that it would cost less if I had one made here in Gold !!!
option.... I will find a gunsmith this side of the pond to make one, if I still want it that bad, and I am sure it wont cost me as much..
good luck...
cheers

Here is another alternative for those of you outside of the States and those who are not interested in this due to the price.

CPTBeaker did an excellent write up for modifying the stock safety with JP ambi safety levers. This is worth keeping in mind if you feel comfortable doing the work yourself or perhaps a local gun smith might be willing to do this for you.
 
Great news everyone. Battle Arms Development will have the new prototype in a couple of days. Once they approve the final design, it will go into production!
 
The prototype has been approved as the model for production units :D A prototype center is being sent to That Guy, if MP 15-22 receivers are uniform as we think they are (unlike all the various thicknesses of AR receivers by different manufacturers), this should be the reference model the production is based on.
