Is 1/8" on one side or each side? Because that could be a little more gap than normal. It should be fine if you just out your selector detent in, spring, and grip on. This will center up the selector and even out the gap and take out all the play.

1/8 total meaning 1/16th on either side. I will try putting in the detent and see what it looks like. Thanks

Make sure your center section is installed correctly so that the detent will work correctly. I think I installed the first one I ever did in a rush backwards and had the problem you are experiencing. It was different brand safety but same issue.

There should be zero side to side movement once properly installed. If the detent is in place and under spring pressure with he grip installed, the detent should ride in the cut channel and snap into each milled stop point. The selector also should not be rubbing circles on the side of the receiver. Now that said, I have not used that specific selector, but none of mine have ever done that.

Either you have a full auto selector installed or no detent allowing the selector to rotate toward the FA position. Put in your selector detent, spring, and pistol grip and your side to side play will stop. That's the purpose of these parts.

Thanks all. With some fussing I was finally able to get the detent to drop down into the selctor. Once this happened the safety was centered and I had I had no grip rub on either side. Looks like a keeper.
