What is the benefit of an ambidextrous thumb safety?
An ambidextrous safety is essential for left-handed shooters, allowing them to operate the safety without breaking their grip. It's also a critical upgrade for right-handed shooters who train for support-hand-only shooting drills, ensuring they can safely operate the firearm with either hand.
Why is gunsmith installation required for this part?
The thumb safety is a critical component that blocks the sear and prevents the hammer from falling. For it to function safely and reliably, it must be precisely fitted to your specific pistol's sear and frame. This is a job for a qualified gunsmith to ensure a 100% safe and reliable installation.
