Description
Most AR-15s roll off the line with a safety built for right-handed use, which leaves lefties and anyone who runs their rifle from both shoulders reaching around the receiver. The POF-USA Ambidextrous Safety Selector fixes that with a two-sided setup that lets you flick between fire and safe from either hand without breaking your grip. It drops into any mil-spec AR-15 or AR-10 lower and keeps the familiar 90-degree throw, so muscle memory carries right over.
What Sets the POF-USA Ambi Selector Apart
The levers are deeply textured, which pays off when your hands are cold, sweaty, or wearing gloves. You get a clean, audible click at each detent, so you always know exactly where the selector sits without looking. Both paddles are mil-spec sized, so they feel natural whether you learned on a stock carbine or a fully built-out rifle. Patriot Ordnance Factory has a long track record building piston-driven ARs out of Phoenix, and that attention to fit shows up in a part this small.
Installing the POF Ambidextrous Selector
If you have ever swapped a standard safety, you already know most of this job. The selector goes in exactly like a factory unit, and the only extra step is attaching the right-side lever with a small Allen wrench once the main body is seated. A tiny dab of thread locker on that screw is a smart move to keep everything snug over a lot of rounds. Most folks have it running in a few minutes on the bench.
Who the POF Ambi Selector Is Built For
Southpaws get the biggest win here, but plenty of right-handed shooters add ambi controls to run the rifle from either shoulder around cover or during training drills. It is an easy upgrade for a stock AR and an obvious choice when you are building a lower from scratch and want ambidextrous handling from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the POF ambidextrous safety selector fit my AR?
It is built to drop into any mil-spec AR-15 or AR-10 lower receiver. If your rifle uses a standard safety selector, this one installs the same way. It keeps the familiar 90-degree throw, so it feels just like a factory unit once it is in.
How hard is it to install this POF ambi selector?
Installation is nearly identical to swapping a standard safety selector. The one extra step is attaching the right-side lever with a small Allen wrench after the main body is seated. Most people finish the job in just a few minutes, and a small drop of thread locker on the lever screw keeps it from backing out.
Does the POF-USA selector work with gloves on?
Yes. The levers are deeply grooved and mil-spec sized, so they give you plenty of grip even with cold, wet, or gloved hands. You also get a positive, audible click at each position so you know exactly where the safety sits.
Is this a good pick for left-handed shooters?
Absolutely. Most factory ARs put the safety on the left side only, which is awkward for southpaws. This adds a lever on both sides so you can move between fire and safe without shifting your grip, and right-handed folks running the rifle from both shoulders benefit too.
