I am currently building my first AR and I was wondering the pros/cons with the AMBI selector versus just the one sided.
Thanks |

I am left handed and love my BADD-ASS
It allows you to choose from multiple levers, there are 6 right now and they are coming out with another soon. I chose the regular lever for the right side and the long thin for the left side. I can comfortably use the selector without right handed people having interference. I am in the middle of a build using the Spikes ELPK, so I might buy my next BAD-ASS from them since I can get it NiB coated, just like my LPK. |

My own personal preference is the Stag lefty only. Not only does it do what I want it to do, it doesn't cost a damn fortune.  Edited to say: Lefty selector only on a righty upper. I'll never purchase a lefty upper. (and never is a very long time) |

It is notched to work from either side. Works for me. YMMV |

Quoted: Some don’t fit well. Some right handed shooters find they are in the way. It is kind of expensive, but there is one that uses a short lever on the weak hand side. this....i installed the BAD with the thin ambi side selector and took it off faster than i put it on.... i didn't like the way it felt under my trigger finger....felt unnatural.... YMMV |

Quoted: yeah, I'm not a lefty and they are friggin' expensive. So it's really a matter of preference- not so much a specific function? What do you think of MAGPUL stuff? What do I think of Magpul stuff? The only 5.56 mags I own are Magpul Pmags. The Magpul BUIS are "okay" if you can't afford better. Not a fan of the "bad" lever they market. (thought it was cool stuff for a brief period, thought better of it later) I have Magpul trigger guards on a bunch of my lowers. (I don't use the roll pins they ship with them, they seem a bit oversized. spiral roll pins rock) I've got a Magpul sticker on the back window of my truck. I understand they have great customer support but I've never had a reason to required it. Conclusion: I love most of the stuff they offer, but a few products appear to be a solution in search of a problem. |
