Super Safety V4.4 Parts
This comprehensive package includes multiple STL files covering both two and three position safety variants, along with all necessary trigger components and hardware interfaces. The design incorporates single-mode and dual-mode trigger configurations, allowing builders to select the optimal setup for their specific requirements.
Print settings should prioritize dimensional accuracy and layer adhesion given the precision requirements of fire control components. PETG or ABS materials are strongly recommended for their superior mechanical properties and durability under operational stresses. All components require 100% infill density to ensure structural integrity and reliable function.
Printer Compatibility & Settings
Compatible with FDM printers featuring heated beds and enclosed chambers for optimal results with engineering-grade materials. PETG filament offers the ideal balance of strength, chemical resistance, and printability for this application, though ABS remains acceptable for experienced users with proper ventilation.
Recommended settings include 0.2mm layer heights for optimal surface finish and dimensional accuracy, with 100% infill density mandatory for all functional components. Supports may be required for certain geometries, particularly trigger mechanism interfaces and safety selector components.
Conclusion
The Super Safety V4.4 represents a significant advancement in 3D printable AR-15 enhancement systems, combining active trigger technology with proven safety mechanisms in a comprehensive, well-documented package. Complete build documentation ensures successful implementation while maintaining the highest standards of safety and functionality. This system offers serious enthusiasts an opportunity to experience enhanced shooting performance through innovative engineering and precision manufacturing techniques.
