Strike Industries AR-15 Ambidextrous Safety Selector Switch - Red was the third most added safety selector on GunPartPicker in August 2026, behind the Phase 5 Tactical AR-15 90 Degree Ambi Safety Selector Black, with about 11% of all safety selectors added to builds. That's its 4th straight month at #3. Builds with this safety selector are mostly chambered in 5.56 NATO (68%, then .223 Wylde 14%), split between mid-length (56%) and carbine-length (24%) gas systems, and mostly AR-15 (71%, then AR-10 29%).
Availability is good: it was in stock at one retailer or another nearly every day in August 2026, and today all 6 retailers we track have it in stock. It dipped to $49 at Optics Planet for a stretch in August 2026, well under its usual $62.95, so sales do come around. Buying today, the lowest price is $56.66 at Optics Planet, above August's low of $49, so a better deal may come back.
