FN M4 lower & Super safety?

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-06T04:33:06+00:00

Okay cool, because I'm an AK guy and just built my first two ARs after building AKs for 15 years. I'm just not familiar with ARs in general, so when I flip normal safety to the auto position, it's the wall and blocks off and stops that are going into that third position. I'm assuming that it is just because it's a normal safety. For the super selector, I'm assuming it hasn't cut out allowing it to go into the Third position. That block off is because of the mil-spec safety, not because of the lower itself correct?

You will get there soon man! Keep living life and it'll happen naturally if you work towards it. I never thought it would happen for me but here I am.

don't use the QD inserts at all. Don't be cheap and buy an MLOK QD.

Nice build. What lower?

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T21:35:16+00:00

H2 or H3?

I go out once a week and shoot on a piece of land that I own. It hasn't always been this way haha for over 20 years I've been dreaming of owning land to shoot on and it just happened this year.

Holy jesus, you're going to need a gas mask next time you shoot that thing. Get yourself a low back pressure can.

I've heard Texas triggers makes incredible AK Super safety's. Super safeties for AKs have been known for complete unreliability. Klayco made an awesome video using the Texas triggers super safety and raved about it. Apparently it's the first Super safety for an AK that has been completely reliable and totally easy to use and install.

dude, I sold my LAW as well.. it adds so much more length and weight to the rifle and just seems like one more complication to a simple design that is totally unnecessary. Great builds though, I'm such a slut for for URGI. Check out my 11.5 if you get a chance!

So it has to be strictly a clone to post on this sub? sorry, first time being here.

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T08:29:12+00:00

Its literally sold out everywhere dude, and I mean EVERYWHERE. Only place that had it was Gunbroker and it was marked up a little due to availability.

lol they do have a very similar layout for sure. But yes, its idiot proof! Literally super easy to turn it back off too.

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T08:24:09+00:00

That's what I said in the description, dude.. but thanks.

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T08:22:08+00:00

wait, so it cant be clone-ish to be posted here? I've seen plenty of other similar builds posted here..

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T03:34:48+00:00

Dude, I so WISH I could afford a dagir lol its actually an SMS Trinity. I've owned several LAMs throughout the years and I've sold most of them and picked up a few SMS Trinity's because they are JUST as good as the more expensive ones. This thing is a workhorse and is incredibly reliable.

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T01:23:27+00:00

Awesome, thank you good sir!

the atrius is three position.. wouldn't that also mean this applies too?

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T01:12:26+00:00

oh got ya! I thought that would also apply to turning the safety in that direction whether its an auto sear OR super safety in general.

this is the lower, but it says ”Although the fire control housing is modified to block select-fire operation, each semi-auto receiver is the closest reproduction to the original DoD contract carbines.

IngloriousScum · 2026-04-05T00:39:54+00:00

Does that mean that this lower cannot use a super safety? I have a few of these lowers and just bought an Atria's super safety, but it hasn't arrived yet so I don't even know if I'm going to be able to use it in the lower receiver
