About this product
What is the Glock-Mod 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector?
The Glock-Mod 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector is a drop-in trigger control component designed for the FRT-15L3 and FRT-15C3 platforms, enabling rapid-fire capability with precise selector positioning. Engineered for shooters who require ambidextrous operation without compromising reliability, it replaces standard semi-auto controls with a 3-position system. This selector lever installs in under 10 minutes with basic tools, offering immediate functionality upgrade for competitive or tactical use.
What is the Glock-Mod 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector used for?
This selector is used to switch between safe, semi-auto, and binary fire modes on compatible FRT-15 triggers, providing tactical flexibility in dynamic shooting scenarios. It allows right- or left-handed shooters to manipulate fire modes without changing grip position, reducing transition time by approximately 0.3 seconds compared to standard selectors. The hardened steel construction ensures it withstands high-cycle use, making it ideal for 3-gun competitions or defensive training drills exceeding 5,000 rounds.
How does the Glock-Mod 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector compare to the Franklin Armory BFSIII?
It offers more ambidextrous accessibility than the Franklin Armory BFSIII, which lacks left-side lever control, but requires manual reset in binary mode whereas the BFSIII auto-resets. The Glock-Mod selector provides 60-degree throw angles for positive detent engagement, versus the BFSIII's 45-degree throw, giving clearer tactile feedback during rapid mode changes. However, the Franklin system integrates with a wider range of AR-15 lowers without modification.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The selector weighs 2.1 ounces and measures 1.8 inches in length with a 0.25-inch diameter shaft. Its compact profile adds minimal bulk to the receiver, maintaining a low snag profile for holstering or bag storage. The lever extends 0.6 inches from the receiver wall, providing adequate clearance for gloved manipulation in all weather conditions.
Who is this NOT for?
This selector is not for shooters using non-FRT-15L3 or FRT-15C3 triggers, as it lacks cross-compatibility with standard AR-15 fire control groups. It also isn't suitable for jurisdictions restricting binary triggers, requiring users to verify local laws before purchase. Those preferring minimalist controls may find the ambidextrous levers excessive for their needs, adding unnecessary complexity to simple semi-auto setups.
What's in the box?
The package includes one selector lever, two pivot pins, and a 3mm hex key for installation, totaling three components. No additional shims or springs are required, keeping the part count low and reducing potential points of failure. The packaging is anti-corrosion treated to prevent oxidation during storage or shipping durations up to 30 days.
Is the Glock-Mod 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector worth it at $62.15?
At $62.15, it's competitively priced for a machined steel ambidextrous selector, costing $18 less than the Franklin Armory equivalent while offering superior left-hand access. The investment is justified for shooters running high-round-count drills, where shaving 0.3 seconds off mode changes translates to tangible performance gains. For casual plinking or single-mode use, consider the Glock-Mod 3.5lb Connector as a simpler, lower-cost alternative.
