Selector Plates for AEGs - for precise shifting and reliable fire modes

Selector plates are small but very important components within the AEG gearbox. They determine how smoothly and accurately your replica switches between safe, semi and full-auto and ensure that your fire selector does exactly what you expect it to do. A high-quality selector plate prevents incomplete switching, jamming fire modes and wear on internal components, especially during intensive use or a complete gearbox overhaul.

Why choose a new selector plate?

Through use, wear or inaccurate fitting, a selector plate can become deformed, move stiffly or even break. This leads to inconsistent switching, problems with fire modes or a selector that feels loose. A high-quality selector plate offers stability, durability and smooth movement so that your fire selector continues to function reliably, regardless of your playing style or build.
