Does anybody make an ambi M16 selector? I’ve looked everywhere I can think of.

Better quality than milspec would be ideal.

My current selector is gritty as hell.

Thanks for any help!!

I believe both Griffin Armament and Forward Controls Design make them.

I use a knights armament co pant full auto am I selector. Very high quality.

PSA makes one as well but if slightly lower quality. Feel like I’ve seen a DPMS but not 100% sure

I eventually replaced the Schmid selector mentioned in the thread KalmanPhilter linked with a Forward Controls Design ASF-SFQ 90° ambi selector. It's much smoother than the Schmid as you move the levers through their positions.

I was pleased with the ease of installation when it came to the roll pins, using a pair of parallel jaw pliers made it easy to seat the pins.

I bought it on sale from Primary Arms for $71.06.
