Hiperfire 24C Compatible Safeties

[2alphas]

The Joe Bob safety is working for me using Hiperfire 243G, ECL and EDT2.

It works with my 24C.  It just wouldn't release like a normal safety.  It would take an extreme amount of force to release it.  Not what you want in a safety, but like others have said, one size definitely doesn't fit all.

Anyone tried the V7 3gun lever safety with a 24c?

Hiperfire EDT and Strike Industries Strike ambi safety: Installed today on New Frontier Armory C-45 billet lower. It works, installed 60 degree throw, despite what Strike says. Guess Hiperfire wins this argument on this particular lower!

Hiperfire specifically says this safety is not compatible on their website.

Thanks!

I have since seen that on their website.

Anyone know if Timber Creek Outdoors Ambidextrous Safety Selector is compatible with Hiperfire triggers ? They are cheap and look nice,45 and 90 degree. 

[LynxCAT]

Can anyone confirm they are using Seekin Precision in 60 degree and that it works with Hiperfire triggers ?

[LynxCAT]

I have seen the statement "For the Hiperfire, avoid the safeties with reversible 90/45 throws."
Armaspec has a 45 degree only safety, anyone tried with Hiperfire triggers. ?

 

[2alphas]

I have used the TimberCreek with the EDT triggers successfully. Have no tried with 24C or Eclipse.

 

Hiperfire is releasing their own ambi 60/90 very shortly. They look and feel good. Of course, they are compatible with their triggers and presumably all others

Seekins didn't work for me. I believe Armaspec does. I use Ascend Armory. Cheap and looks great!

When I had the 24c I used the joe bobs ambi safety, since I live in Cali I had to neuter my rifle to keep it California compliant and I tried the strike switch and it didn’t work consistently so I switched out the trigger. It’s a shame the strike switch won’t always work it’s a great safety.

The new HIPERSAFE 60 degree ambi is released today from Hiperfire. This is the PCC I used at the Atomic Blast.

I have installed Joe Bobs 45 degree ambi safety, for $15 it is a steal !  After a little filing of sharp edges, it feels like a natural extension of my fingers, I just love it, and it it works flawlessly with Hiperfire 3G

I have a 2018 Hyperfire Competition trigger (24C) with a Noveske Ambi safety in a NFA PCC lower.

The gun works 100% however when I remove the upper and try to drop the hammer with the selector in the fire position the hammer will not drop.

I have to apply a downward pressure with my hand to the hammer to get it to drop/release.

Is this normal for Hyperfire triggers?

 

PS I am also using KNS anti rotation pins.

I wish Hiperfire made a trigger for an older Colt lower.

Try it with the anti-rotation pins removed. IIRC, those can cause problems.

I was wondering about that so I messaged Hyperfire about that and this was the response I got.

 

Quote: " we recommend that you use the standard pins that we provide first to get a baseline of function and performance before switching to the KNS pins. KNS pins need to have the center grove for the hammer j-spring, or the j-spring must be removed if not."

 

Thanks for the heads up.

[JZELEK]

I removed the KNS anti-rotation pins and installed the supplied Hyperfire hammer/trigger pins.

I noticed that the trigger pull and reset seams crisper when dry fired.

Not as mushy as with the KNS installed.

I will bring it to the range and make sure its working 100%.

 

PS the KNS trigger pin does have a center grove but its not as deep or wide as the Hyperfire pin.

Awesome! Hope you enjoy the trigger. Everyone who has shot my AR has absolutely loved the Hiperfire trigger.

The thread is a little stale, but the problem still exists, so I'll add my experience.  I tried the Seekins selector switch with the Hiperfire X2 in my PCC, and it is unsat in 90 degree mode.  As an experienced soldier, I don't feel completely right with a 60 degree throw.  There are two fault modes.  One, safety does not fully pop to fire under detent power because the back of the hammer catches the flat on the safety barrel.  A hard trigger pull overcomes the incomplete rotation of the safety, and the gun fires normally after that.  Two, when on safe, the distance from the back of the hammer and the safety barrel is too big.  Yeah, stacking tolerances, I know, but Aero precision does an exceptionally fine job of manufacturing within the spec.  So if give the trigger about 7 lbs of pull with safe on, the spring mechanism pushes over center, and the safety claw catches the hammer.  No fire, but need to cycle the gun to reset the hammer.

 

On close examination, it is my opinion that dual-cut safety barrels (60/90) will not work with this hammer, but milspec will, so I am assuming any single-cut safety will work.  The problem is obviously the cut of the safety.  YMMV.
