After almost three years, our custom safety stud mod is available standalone in a DIY kit. The 6061 T6 Aluminum stud features a black anodized finish, beveled edges to prevent snagging and uncomfortable pressure points, and is just wide enough to actuate with your index finger without getting in the way.
Always verify your firearm is in a safe condition and you are wearing proper PPE before starting any modifications. Please note this is a semi-permanent modification to your firearm. While this mod can be performed by the end user, we do recommend gunsmith installation.

- Drill through the marked position using the provided drill bit. (Making an indent with a punch before drilling helps a lot)
