Forward Controls Design Ambidextrous 50 Degree Safety Selector - Standard/Short Q Levers

ASF-50 is a conventional (rotate to 50 degree for FIRE/SEMI) semi auto selector with q (offset) levers.

ASF was designed from the ground up to be a defense/duty/combat safety selector, its mission is quite aptly reflected by the way its levers are attached the center, via a stainless steel roll pin. The lever to center interface is immensely strong, the high shear strength (800 lbs.) 420 stainless steel spring steel roll pin simply holds the two in place, and doesn't handle any load. One of the design goals dictates there belittle to no wobble between the lever and center, we’ve called for very tight tolerances (+0.001/-0.00) on ASF's lever and center interface to achieve that. NOTE: +/- 0.002 combined tolerance (+/- 0.001 on the levers and center's lever attachment interface) can, on rare occasions, can exhibit minute movement, this is normal, and unavoidable, the 0.002 of movement is almost imperceptible and doesn't affect ASF's function.

ASF (Ambidextrous Selector, Forward Controls) and SOLGW’s The Quick is a joint project between FCD and SOLGW.T he two companies have been collaborating on a few projects, starting with the 4140 steel MLOK sling mount (MSQ-H in FCD alphabet soup parlance). Work began in Dec. 2018 to create a safety that’s an embodiment of our not inconsiderable experience in AR15/M16 selector design and knowledge over the years.

Q levers are offset levers, by shifting the lever closer to the shooter's thumb when the selector is on SEMI/FIRE, it enables the user to more easily rotate it back to SAFE without shifting his grip.  For that reason, q levers are side specific, the q lever's "leg" should always be biased towards the top.  With the selector on SEMI/FIRE,  the q lever should look like a letter q (hence its name).

The end cap is for those that don’t wish to have a lever on the weak side of the receiver. With the end cap, ASF becomes a convertible selector (between ambidextrous and non-ambidextrous.)

ASF is shipped with a selector spring, a KNS nitrided selector detent, two levers (or one lever, with an end cap), 4 roll pins (two are needed for installation, with 2 spares).

ASF centers are billet machined in 8620, heat treated and black nitrided. Levers are billet machined in 8620 and black nitrided.

ASF is a collaboration with Sons of Liberty Gunworks. Made in the USA.
