the first safety selector is pivotable clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in one way, and

the first safety selector is pivotable counter-clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in another way,

wherein the second safety selector comprises:

a second connection portion configured to pivotably couple to the receiver portion; and

a second lever portion having a first distal end and a second distal end extending away from the second connection portion in two different directions, wherein, when installed on the second side of the receiver portion of the firearm:

the second safety selector is pivotable clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in one way, and

the second safety selector is pivotable counter-clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in another way,

wherein the first lever portion comprises a first pedal at the first distal end,

wherein the first lever portion further comprises a second pedal at the second distal end,

wherein a surface of the first pedal is textured,

wherein a surface of the second pedal is textured, and

wherein an angle between a plane defined by a surface of the first pedal and a longitudinal axis of the first lever portion is greater than zero.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein a first length between a tip of the first distal end of the first lever portion and a center of the first connection portion is greater than a second length between a tip of the second distal end of the first lever portion and the center of the first connection portion.

3. The device of claim 2 , wherein, when installed on the receiver portion of the firearm, the first distal end of the first lever portion extends generally toward a front end of the firearm from the first connection portion and the second distal end of the first lever portion extends generally toward a back end of the firearm from the first connection portion.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein a first length between a tip of the first distal end of the second lever portion and a center of the second connection portion is greater than a second length between a tip of the second distal end of the second lever portion and the center of the second connection portion.

5. The device of claim 4 , wherein, when installed on the receiver portion of the firearm, the first distal end of the second lever portion extends generally toward a front end of the firearm from the first connection portion and the second distal end of the second lever portion extends generally toward a back end of the firearm from the first connection portion.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the second lever portion comprises a first pedal at the first distal end, wherein the second lever portion further comprises a second pedal at the second distal end, wherein a surface of the first pedal is textured, and wherein a surface of the second pedal is textured, and wherein an angle between a plane defined by a surface of the first pedal and a longitudinal axis of the second lever portion is greater than zero.

7. A device implementable on a firearm, comprising:

a first safety selector configured to be installed on a receiver portion of the firearm, comprising:

a first connection portion configured to pivotably couple to the receiver portion; and

a first lever portion having a first distal end and a second distal end extending away from the first connection portion in two different directions,

wherein, when installed on the receiver portion of the firearm:

the first safety selector is pivotable clockwise responsive to a user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in one way, and

the first safety selector is pivotable counter-clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in another way,

wherein a first length between a tip of the first distal end of the first lever portion and a center of the first connection portion is greater than a second length between a tip of the second distal end of the first lever portion and the center of the first connection portion,

wherein, when installed on the receiver portion of the firearm, the first distal end of the first lever portion extends generally toward a front end of the firearm from the first connection portion and the second distal end of the first lever portion extends generally toward a back end of the firearm from the first connection portion,

wherein the first lever portion comprises a first pedal at the first distal end,

wherein the first lever portion further comprises a second pedal at the second distal end,

wherein a surface of the first pedal is textured, and

wherein a surface of the second pedal is textured.

8. The device of claim 7 , wherein an angle between a plane defined by a surface of the first pedal and a longitudinal axis of the first lever portion is greater than zero.

9. The device of claim 7 , further comprising:

a second safety selector configured to be installed on the receiver portion of the firearm, comprising:

a second connection portion configured to pivotably couple to the receiver portion; and

a second lever portion having a first distal end and a second distal end extending away from the second connection portion in two different directions,

wherein, when installed on the receiver portion of the firearm:

the second safety selector is pivotable clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in one way, and

the second safety selector is pivotable counter-clockwise responsive to the user pressing or pushing either of the first distal end and the second distal end in another way,

wherein the first safety selector is installed on a first side of the receiver portion and the second safety selector is installed on a second side of the receiver portion opposite the first side.

10. The device of claim 9 , wherein a first length between a tip of the first distal end of the second lever portion and a center of the second connection portion is greater than a second length between a tip of the second distal end of the second lever portion and the center of the second connection portion.

11. The device of claim 10 , wherein, when installed on the receiver portion of the firearm, the first distal end of the second lever portion extends generally toward a front end of the firearm from the second connection portion and the second distal end of the second lever portion extends generally toward a back end of the firearm from the second connection portion.
