Its nice to see the small AR parts are getting attention. The quality of the run of the mill mil spec parts has drastically gone downhill. I recently discovered a forward assist that was out of spec. that had been causing ejection issues by slowing down the BCG, IE: it was to long. Definitely was not on the list of cures for weak ejection. Also has a safety selector detent on my sons rifle break and render the safety useless while running some drills.

FWIW, Geissele sells an enhanced LPK too. I was told to stick with Colt, but that stuff is near impossible to find in kit form. I trust the stuff from Aero and DSG, too.

ah, I missed your last sentence. There you go. Yeah, an inop safety because of a detent is bad. Potentially bring down the whole system because one of the cheapest parts on the whole platform. I'm surprised one of those would fail, but they get a lot of use compared to other parts, like the take down pins.
Thanks.

Looking at mine, I'd say just the detents.
Edit:Made from proprietary Geissele designs out of Stainless Steel, the Geissele Super Duty LPK ensures a much longer life-span and a much lower chance of rusting or failing in extreme conditions and heavy use.The Geissele Posi-Snap safety is made from 400 series stainless steelLast edited by Joelski; 27 July 2021 at 14:20.
