It’s a very simple thing on their end to make one adjustment and have all theirs work for y’all. /media/mediaFiles/sharedAlbum/subnetfavoritelol-1033.gif Right? I'm not trying to be an ass, and I understand Zulu not wanting to redo his design to accommodate, but the G trigger the Regulator is designed around is an out of production design from years back and the new design disco is in the vast majority of the new G triggers being sold. G sells way more triggers than Zulu does Regulators so they aren't going to redesign. The simplest fix here would be a picture indicating how to modify the new G disco to work. In my mind you cannot make a short tail longer so the fix is something else. If it's to file the disco down somewhere simply show us the correct disco overlaid on the wrong one so we can see what to remove. And before Zulu gets mad, I'm not knocking his product, I think its the best of the FRT designs I've seen to date, and the fact that it will drop into a milspec rifle and run is amazing. That you can quickly move it to whatever rifle you're using that day is a huge selling point. It really is a gift to the community. Some of us are just better with visuals than with words. |

Quoted: The AZ Regulator would absolutely own the FRT market if it were three-position selectable. But then it couldn't be a drop in unit which is the whole point of it. If you have to start changing safeties and such, it's only good for those rifles, and those rifles then wouldn't work without it. |

Quoted: Dude you are no duty expert so stand down The SSA we do is perfect Apparently there are TONS of them on the streets Again folks have been using the G triggers since July 4 2024 We have only had a few calls which were all on E models or the low end G models. Which are not the base SSA model To add insult to your injury. Last week I sent a care package to the AR15.com offices. One of the models that was mentioned that they especially liked was the AZR-15-SSA. If it didn’t work my cell would have lit up with a question from them on it. Now to dispel your assessment on 3 position Again you are not qualified to make mechanical statements on my product line, at minimum 3 position is not a problem. While also using any standard milspec 3 position selector Quoted: Quoted: Right?

While also using any standard milspec 3 position selector In this thread alone we have seen several members having trouble with drop in using current production SSAs and SD3Gs. We all understand this is due to a design change done by G and not your product. This design change by G isn't likely to be reversed so there will be many SSAs that will require a modification to work. Once again, NO ONE is saying that's your fault. NO ONE. They are only asking for a better explination and simple photo of what to modify on the G products that are experiencing problems. We know it's possible because YOU have said it is. I've never seen another business that treated customers and potential customers like they were an inconvenience, even if they were complimenting the product. My statement regarding a 3 position still stands. If it requires a milspec 3 position selector, that is a modification to the rifle and would be required for any rifle you want to drop it into. As I stated "If you have to start changing safeties and such, it's only good for those rifles" I never said it wasn't possible, just that it defeats the simple "drop into any rifle" concept of the original AZR15. I'm certain there are many people who are perfectly happy to modify their rifles for a 3 position FRT device. No one is attacking you but you seem to react as if they were. |

Quoted: Bingo We have a winner Which is why I am walking the Gauntlet at this time I know what I created. I created it on purpose for everyone. Nothing new. Had the same flak from the opposition in the Smith Revolver world when I dropped the Lock Delete on that big board 8 years ago That didn’t stop me it served to make my brand take roots across America where we still are at the top of the game in what we do there Same with my J Frame 38/357 moon clips. Always flak when in create a new item. I crushed the j frame moon clip market with the only one that works with every brand 38/357 ammo. Sans euro cases that do not have a rebate under the case rim I also may have a 3 pos for LaRue MBT and Geissele SSA up my sleeve Thus as seen if a manufacture makes changes that cause them to no longer be compatible with my system then you guys will have to go to that manufacture and get them to make a correction so you can use their trigger The LaRue is rock solid and will never have the disconnector question as shown in previous posts. LaRue lands on a solid stantion that is machined onto the trigger body. Highly doubt they will change that as it already works with their exact trigger and there is no reason for LaRue to take away your ability to use my units with their trigger If Geissele wants in the game they will do something to help you guys out so you can use their other triggers. ( ETA if I hear from them I would work with them as I will have to grant license for them to manufacture an intentionally compatible trigger as that is a feature I have locked down in my Letters Patent Pending ) I have no control over what they as a manufacture do not do I are to have any say in what they do. I just keep going and giving y’all more brands that you can use. All the manufacturers are pissed I guarantee it. Because as you stated I have created the thing Look close at the selector in this video Straight plain ol M16 selector using a milspec trigger Thus pick whatever selector you want to use and you are good as long as that selector is compatible with the milspec FCG Exciting stuff! Let me know and I’ll be happy to snag a few, especially if they are MBT compatible. Your current version runs perfectly in my 9mm AR and several other AR versions. Keep up the good work sir! |

What no one realizes is that I actively work behind the scenes with trigger manufactures to find you guys more brand triggers you can use There have been emails go out from a central industry contact I have that have been addressed to myself and the CEOs of a couple places to make initial contact I have then followed up with those men to no avail Zero response means those manufacturers do not want you using their triggers with out products No problem I will just ignore those manufacturers Should it become something where I have to crate y’all a perfect two stage trigger then I will create one and manufacture it I do not want to do that as there are already manufacturers that make triggers y’all like But again I will do what I have to do to get y’all costed on my end. What other refuse to do for you as their customers is out of my hands y’all |

You can stop with the veiled threats of suing people for defamation, it looks fucking retarded. The only thing causing "substantial damages" to your brand is YOU. What's defamatory about saying that the current production SSAs don't seem to play well with the AZR without some modification? What's defamatory about saying that to have a 3 position version requires modifying a typical AR by replacing the safety selector? Take a look back through this thread and you'll notice I've done nothing but praise how your design is, in my opinion, the superior FRT on the market. I've never so much as mentioned any other FRT brand. But hey, fuck me and everyone else for having some questions in a thread entitled "Q&A, ask the manufacturer." |

Quick note on orders shipping as I have had a few calls asking about that in the past few days Used to be everything shipped next work day. Late in week it’s still like that most of the time if there’s units left late in the week. Early week is busy and you won’t see next work day on those orders but a couple days and you will see them move via usps When we get busy like now everything that’s ordered gets shipped and you’ll see your tracking number move they usps before more units get added to the site for others to order Mail ins get pulled and filled before units are added to site for click and buy Everything in my manufacturing and subsequent processes goes in blocks When we put units out for click and buy on the site those units already physically exist and have passed qc From there that’s when the boxes get labeled and launched off to y’all |

Quoted: Wouldn't the original AZR-15 be a better choice for those with new SSAs so it could be filed to fit or is the change in the disco so dramatic that the AZR won't make proper contact? You've got to be confused on which Arizona Regulator works with what trigger? The Geissele SSA and SSA X are not the Geissele SSA-E or their G2S trigger design(s). The Arizona Regulator model AZR-15M2-SSA is indeed a no tools required drop-in forced reset device that can be used with the Geissele SSA trigger. *Follow AZR instructions on the buffer weight for best function. During independent testing, the AZR-15M2-SSA also worked with an Geissele SSA X too. You must have a milspec upper receiver for the AZR device to fit. I hope that clarified it for you. It is what it is and it works. I'm looking forward to whatever the OP comes up with next. His idea of a 3-position is very intriguing. I would want one or two of those. |

He's not talking about SSA-Es at all. He's talking about newer production SSAs. It apparently does not work with new production SSAs drop-in without modification. Hopefully the only people reading his website have really old SSAs. eta: Ironically, it sounds like it actually would work with my old ass SSA-Es drop in.

At this point I'm just following the thread to laugh at all the people throwing sissy fits about a product no one is forcing them to buy. The product has already ben explained over and over as well as thoroughly explained with the TM's on the Arizona Regulator website. pure kARen15.com gold |

Sir I've read your previous posts and yes we know it works for you and yes I have a bunch of SSA-E, SSP, SSF too. We don't want to see the part number on the box; that doesn't mean anything as Geissele could've updated the disconnector on their SSA but still keeping the same part number.

Maybe the Geissele rep can chime in? Wouldn't Geissele know of any disconnector changes for their part number? It may be advisable to go to the source. Eta: I can ask later about this specifically in their industry forum. |

Quoted: For the people too lazy to look at pg.13: This is the new/current production Geissele SSA disconnector that's confirmed by member Apple3_14159 to be not working with the AZR M2-SSA; this photo was also taken by him https://i.imgur.com/5XzjdGW.jpeg This is the old Geissele SSA disconnector (from 2009 time frame) that's confirmed to be working with the AZR M2-SSA by OP. The picture OP posted of his SSA that he used to design the M2-SSA around the disconnector looks exactly like this https://i.imgur.com/jmAH8Z5.jpeg For those who can't tell the differences, the old SSA disconnector is longer than the current production one; the front and tail also different on the 2 disconnectors. Well, now, I'm going to check my invoices to find the last date I purchased an G SSA trigger. If the case is Geissele did change the disconnector, I would think that is simply an file adjustment on a AZR cam? Thank you, I did not see those pictures, I followed the part number. Eta: my last SSA purchase was 7/24. |

And funnily enough, it actually looks different than the one zulu just posted that he used in development. At least, the bit on the end looks different to me. Flat with one rounded corner versus pointed. Possibly three different versions of disconnector? eta: All my SSA-E disconnectors have that subtle notch on the underside. I don't have an SSA to compare it to for overall length tho. eta: That end doesn't look like it matters anyways. |
