    I had a similar issue with my BAD safety selector. The detents were getting worn to mushy nothingness in 20 reps of dry fire. Duffy helped me diagnose the issue. I emailed BAD today about my issue (I ordered 3 safeties at once and all had the same issue) and going to send them some pics of the detent. BAD confirmed in a 30 second reply that they had a run of safeties that went out with bad detents and they said they would replace them no problem. Just call or email them.

    I'm sure you guys know I left in late 2014 to start Forward Controls Design

    In my last conversation with my former partner earlier this year, he told me KNS had sent them detents that were below the hardness they should be, that was the first I heard of it. Previously (as in while I was there long ago), premature deformation of the detent was traced to the detent groove being milled out of spec. This can happen when bits wear out and aren't replaced as frequently as they should, the groove is malformed and there could be burs, both could wear down a detent's tip in couple dozen rotation cycles.

    This was my experience with the included KNS pin with my CASS. I replaced it with mil-spec, has been fine since.
