The Radian Weapons Talon is an ambidextrous safety selector for AR-15, AR-10, and SR-25 rifles that solves one of the most common complaints about the platform: thumb reach and ergonomics across different shooters and shooting styles. Unlike fixed-position safety levers, the Talon's real innovation is flexibility—you can configure it as a short-throw 45-degree lever or a longer 90-degree lever by simply rotating the internal shaft 180 degrees inside the lower receiver. No tools, no permanent modifications, no guessing which setup works best for your hand size or dominant side.
Built from billet-grade aircraft aluminum with a hardened steel center shaft, the Talon uses a precision dovetail interface with a spring-loaded retention stud instead of the screws found on lesser selectors. That matters: screws loosen, screws break, and screws left loose can cause the lever to slip or fall out in the field. The Talon's mechanical lock-in keeps both levers positioned exactly where they need to be, shot after shot. The mil-spec red anodized finish is durable and provides a visual reference point during manipulation.
Left-handed shooters, ambidextrous rifle runners, and shooters with varying hand sizes appreciate the Talon because you're not stuck choosing a one-size-fits-all lever. Whether you're building a precision AR-10 for long range, setting up an AR-15 for competition or duty use, or configuring an MCX or MPX, the Talon installs into standard mil-spec lower receivers and adapts to how you shoot rather than forcing you to adapt to the rifle.

The Talon is compatible with most semi-automatic AR-15 and AR-10/SR-25-pattern rifles with mil-spec lower receivers. It also fits MCX and MPX platforms. If you have a standard mil-spec lower, the Talon will install without modification.
Yes. The 45-degree short-throw and 90-degree long-throw positions are achieved by rotating the internal shaft 180 degrees inside the lower receiver. You can change the configuration without removing the selector from the rifle, making it simple to adjust your setup based on preference or use case.
The Talon includes both short and long lever options, allowing you to choose or switch between them depending on your ergonomic preference and shooting style.
The Talon's spring-loaded retention stud locks the lever in place mechanically without relying on screws. This eliminates the common problem of screws loosening or breaking, ensuring your safety lever stays positioned correctly under normal use.
