We're happy to announce Seekins Precision has chosen our 90 degree, non-dovetailed selector (BAD-ASS) as standard equipment on its beautifully made, high quality rifles and carbines! :) Photo courtesy of Triple Bravo (thanks Bill!) We've long been admirers of Seekins for their attention to detail, and the art form they have been able to incorporate into something that's utilitarian looking for the most part. If we made receivers ourselves, they may look something like the Seekins receivers <thumbsup>

Thanks Drew, we're growing, but we are controlling it, lest we grow too big and too fast, something will suffer when that happens :)

Thank you guys, we are grateful for the support we've received from you guys. In 2010, many of you took a chance on us, then an unknown company outside of the M14 world, I will never forget the generosity and opportunity you guys gave us. We in turn support many charities, shoots and events, as a way of giving back. We're a small company and don't have the means to donate thousands of dollars worth of products, but we make up by doing as many of them as we can :) As we grow, the principles on which the company is built will remain. We don't forget who we work for, be it enthusiasts, LE, or MIL, we're constantly humbled by the thought that we are fortunate indeed to be able to call them our customers. Thanks guys!

A little bird tells me we'll start seeing our selectors and Seekins Precision lowers / carbines a lot more ;)

Hehe, we're showing up in more places, thanks for noticing Robo :D

I just googled for her pic, yikes! :cookoo:

I did not sleep with my house keeper! :o

Haha nobody would buy that! ;D

Haha it's taken an unexpected and fun filled turn :cookoo: <thumbsup>

Lol I love you guys ;D

A little history on the BAD-CASS... We developed the BAD-CASS-3P, M16 for a major firearms manufacturer that intended to use it on their improved carbine trials. In 4 months, 8 M16s with these selectors installed had over 100K rounds fired, the selectors never failed, and the screws never backed out. The BAD-CASS features a dovetailed interface for lever attachment, this allows us to put the auto sear cut on the left side of the selector axis. The dovetail interface also serves to remove load and stress on the screws, as the dovetail is primarily responsible in keeping the levers attached. Thus, in the event of the screws backing out (more on that later), the loss of the mounting screw doesn't render the selector useless, as the dovetail interface allows the levers to stay on the selector axis. BAD-ASS on left, BAD-CASS on right (thanks Jon for the pic!) So this begs the question, is it necessary? Due to the use of high quality, Grade 8 screws with Torx heads, screws backing out on any of our selectors is very rare. As with most firearms accessories that use screws, a little drop of thread locker is recommended. We've had folks that purposely leave the screws without thread locker, and have been shooting the heck out of their rifles with our selectors installed, without ever having the screws back out. I'm perfectly confident with the BAD-ASS family of selectors if I am going in harm's way. Judging by its increased use and popularity on LE weapons, I'm definitely not alone. The BAD-CASS as designed, was never intended for semi auto, even though it works in that role very well. It is more expensive to manufacture, the dovetail interface requires a great deal of checking and tighter tolerances The BAD-CASS does look pretty, though we never intended for it to look good. As a policy, we spend most of our time on functionality and robustness, aesthetics are usually afterthoughts. This is the very first BAD-CASS-3P, M16 prototype, notice the details of the lever: We're in the process of porting all the available BAD-ASS levers to BAD-CASS, stay tuned ;)

I enjoyed the video, not only because John reviewed our product, but because there's no annoying music, it can be viewed in 1080P, and he knows what he's talking about :)

Thank you 8541 Tactical for the high quality video review :D

Our selectors will appear on another show soon, no air time ETA though :)

Same here, before the Internet became the go to source for vastly more information :)

I don't have the mag, I'm going to go to the news stand to get it <thumbsup>

Who built this Mk18? :)

Thanks Tom! :) They are available to dealers, please email me if you don't have the dealer price list ;D

Thank you Tom! <thumbsup>

Brownells already carries them :) Please email me roger@battlearmsdevelopment.com, I'll send you the dealer's price list. We'll be switching over to a new site soon, we outgrew this one a long time ago :(

We're all together [group hug] ;D

Lord, I apologize to you and all the little pygmies of New Guinea :D

What did I do, blame Tom! ;D
