Ambi Safety Selector

[Honeydealer]

What is everyone using for an Ambidextrous Safety Selector now that the Battle Arms Development BAD ASS lever can't be imported due to the US State Department?

I use me some KAC from Farmboy at One Shot Tactical. It works pretty well.

I like my S&J selector. Multiple lever options, nicely finished, and Canadian made. Win, win, win

 

[Chalk]

I'm running the S&J.

I wish both sides were scalloped on the KAC lever.

I known Brownells won't export BAD products but are you saying Canadian retails won't be able to get them anymore?

 

[Honeydealer]

That is correct. US State Department gave Battle Arms Development a big scare.

Where'd you hear about this? My googe-fu is lacking...

 

[Non-phixion]

I'd like to hear from the US State Department about all those US weaponry taken over by ISIS in Iraq.

I was one of their dealers and yes, they quite exporting after DOS had a talk with them.

It's common in this industry and most companies don't want to hire anyone to look after the paperwork for the limited market we have.

Just curious...any idea what the DOS talk was about? Seems funny they'd stop exporting if only some paperwork didn't have the i's and t's completed properly.

DOS with ITAR is similar to our firearm laws. It's not that specific.

So knowing exactly what is considered a firearm part that actually "enhances" the firearm or makes it easier to use, is sometime up for debate depending on the agent, lawyer, judge etc.


We went through this before with Blue Force Gear when DOS put a scare into them saying slings were a firearm part and controlled by ITAR.

 

[Cavs42]

I love my BAD ASS 45*. I was planning to get some more levers to give me options, but I'll just keep on loving the stock version now.

 

[Brordo]

Gotcha...was wondering if this might have been something like the Midway fiasco of yesteryear...

 

[Farmboy]

They could spend thousands and thousands on lawyers, employees, registration etc. to get them through everything only to recoup some of their costs on sales.

And DOS walks into companies and says if you screw up it's a $25,000 min fine plus possible jail time.

 

[Brordo]

Ouch! Thanks for the info Farmboy!
