We also have about 1000 detent springs. We can send you couple of them to cut coils from, these springs get damaged or lost easily, I always keep couple of them around. Well now I have close to 1000![]()

The inclusion of a new spring won't address every spring related issue, a good detent is more important so it's included
I'm sure you've read here and on TOS that folks have had problems with spring tension with their MIM selectors whose groove is shallower. The lower, pistol grip can play a part in this too. By raising the height of the groove, it won't fix every spring tension related problem either, but we're gradually reducing the external variables that can affect our selectors.
To date, we are still the only company that includes a detent with a selector, we can include a spring except we're not convinced it has as big an impact as a good detent does![]()

Just a thought on overcoming the indicator slot not matching up with the fire position, on standard receivers. How about dimpling a dot with a drill, on the receiver where it aligns with the lever slot, when it's in the fire position. Then add a dab of red paint and you should be good to go.

My thought was not that BAD would do it, but a homemade remedy that you yourself can do. Not marking the lever itself, but marking the receiver. It wouldn't matter where the levers line up, because you are custom making the reference marks, in the correct positions on the receiver, yourself.![]()

See my pic posted above. That was an Idea I had when I first installed the 45 on my rifle. Honestly, most of us are smart enough to figure out the position of the safety without looking at the pictures.![]()
