Y’all ever seen anything like this?  One minute I’m rock and rolling the next it’s semi in both positions.  Turned it over to take a look and the left selector fell out.  That little shaft broke.

I emailed them to see what’s up, but this frt had less than 200 rds on it.  It’s a V1.

Yikes. I've got over 2k+ on a V1, close to that on another V1, and over 2k+ on another V2. Also a V2 with 1k+. Haven't had anything like that happen yet, but that's a bit concerning, heh.

I hope they get you taken care of.

Let me know how they respond, been hearing lots of complaints about them not offering support or even responding once you give them your money

If you msg me ur order number ill have them send a replacement. We don't see the detent bars break very often, but the few times i have seen them break its normally a heat treat issue where they essentially got over cooked to a point of being brittle and breaking during install. Also for the record if anyone has anything from ASD break you are welcome to message me and ill get it replaced, our support guys sometimes get flooded with silly questions so the support email takes some time.

Classy move there.

I had a shaft break on one of mine and they ended up sending out two for free.
This one was probably fatigued from reinstalling several times and not know how tight to torque the screw.
Sometimes it takes a little while for a response via email but they do get back to you.
Good company just really busy I'm sure.

And it helps they have a guy on here I see that responds to stuff like this!

ASD has already shipped the replacement part.  That’s OG Nordstrom level service
