TT AR15 SAFETY SHORT THROW 45 TO 90 BLK

The TriggerTech AR15 safety short throw selector offers competitive shooters and AR builders a genuinely useful upgrade over factory controls. Built around a patented design that lets you swap it out without removing the grip, this ambidextrous safety is engineered for the speed and reliability demands of three-gun, tactical training, and precision rifle work. Whether you're running drills at close range or fine-tuning your setup between range sessions, the ability to install and remove the safety without grip removal cuts your maintenance time significantly.

The tumbler is 440C stainless steel finished with DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating—a hard, low-friction surface that resists corrosion and delivers a crisp, smooth engagement every time you move the selector. The real differentiator is the proprietary ball-tip detent pin made from silicon nitride, a material chosen for extreme durability and ultralow friction. This translates to a noticeably refined feel when transitioning between safe and fire, without the slop or drag that wears into standard controls after heavy competition use.

The levers are 17-4 stainless steel with a black PVD (physical vapor deposition) coating on this model—tough and corrosion-resistant, designed to handle both the wear of high-speed shooting and the cleaning solvent splash of field maintenance. You get interchangeable short and long lever options, and a cap to block one side if you prefer single-sided operation. Setup is flexible: choose a 45-degree throw for aggressive, short-sweep operation, or swap to a 90-degree throw for deliberate, positive engagement.

This is purpose-built for shooters who care about how their controls feel and perform—competitors, tactical operators, and serious builders who move through their rifle's controls hundreds of times per training cycle and want consistency without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this safety compatible with any AR15 trigger, or only TriggerTech?

The TriggerTech AR15 safety was developed to maximize performance with TriggerTech AR triggers. While it may function on other AR builds, it is purpose-designed and optimized for TriggerTech trigger systems.

Can I switch between 45-degree and 90-degree throw?

Yes. The safety features interchangeable throws—you can set it up as either 45° or 90° depending on your preference, and swap between them as needed.

Do I have to remove my grip to install or remove this safety?

No. The patented design allows you to install and remove the safety without grip removal once the initial installation is complete. This saves substantial time during trigger changes, cleaning, or other maintenance.
