[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Which BAD-ASS Selector?

Posted: 10/22/2014 10:25:19 PM EDT

Standard, thin or short? They are all the same price.

Poll fails, I do a mix of short and thin.

EDIT:
If you are doing the 45 degree throw, go with the short levers. I am right handed and the thicker lever bothers me with the 90 degree throw. In that case I would recommend thin. You can custom tweak the sides to your liking.

I use standard/thin 90othrow (BAD-CASS SA) on all my rifles.

YMMV

I have one on only one of my rifles. I use the standard on the left side and short/thin on the right.

Standard short, both sides, short throw.
I ran a long standard on the support side and short standard on the other when using a full throw safety. Both work really well bUT the short throw levers feel so nice I don't think I'd ever want to go back.

Standard/short.

I have the standard on the LH side and a short thin on the RH side. I thought about swapping the standard out for the standard crank lever.

There are other choices, too:

I use standard on the left and hybrid on the right. Hybrid is basically a cross between a (long) thin and a short. It gives you a little more to push/pull than the short alone, but stays out of the way of your trigger finger. Thought about the scalloped for the right side, but it wasn't an option for the Cerakote (FDE) version.

i like the short one.

Standard/short here...although I'm thinking of switching the short to a short and thin. I use that lever to put the rifle back on safe 99% of the time and sometimes find the short/fat lever can contact my hand and prevent the lever from going the entire way to the fire position...

Their 45 degree center solved that problem for me.

I prefer crank on both sides.
