This charging handle works great but it's way to big to be relevant in a serious combat situation "especially in a woods or brushy setting". Like having two wings off back of receiver to catch on everything!! Get a LWRC charging handle get the best once and be done
Pros:
- Ok for competition shooting only , not for combat situations
Cons:
- Too wide catches on brush , etc
Would recommend: No

To me, the B.A.D. charging handle beats the rest of them by far. Its construction is a bit different from the other handles, with fewer moving parts, which makes it feel a lot more solid. Also, it's wide enough to clear any short eye relief scope for easy racking from the side. Will be putting these on all my builds from now on.
Would recommend: Yes

I like the design and functionality of this rack charging handle. I own radian raptors including the np3 coated one, bcg ambi, strike industries latch less and this one is almost as smooth as the np3 coated raptor. it has very little wobble in the venom defense upper it's in. My only issue it that the handles stick out a little more than I like and the handle is also bulky for my taste
Pros:
- Smooth Functioning
- Cool Looking
Would recommend: Yes

Just installed this piece of trash in an aero upper. This charging handle gouged it BAD. I thought it felt a little rough and figured it just needed to break in, so I ran it back and forth a few times after lubricating it. Never got any smoother. So I popped the hood and discovered a giant gouge in the finish of my brand new upper. NOT SMOOTH. OUT OF SPEC. BUYER BEWARE.
Pros:
- Robust mechanism I guess?
Would recommend: No

Best charging handle in the market patented design unlike any other. OpticsPlanet offers it at a price you won’t find anywhere else.
So add it to your cart continue to checkout type in your credentials and tap that little button to purchase. Just don’t tell the significant other cause you know how that one will HANDLE it! pun intended

Cool mechanism. Feels very clean in actuation. Locks positively and will definitely unlock any way you yank on it. Has sharp square surfaces that will pinch an ungloved finger on the inside of the non-latching side (other side too, but latch keeps skin off of those). Pretty sure I can fix it with a needle file. But for the price, I don't expect to be filing things...
Pros:
- Cool mechanism. Good dimensions for easy blind gross motor movement operation.
Would recommend: Yes

YOU BETTER SNATCH THIS CHARGING HANDLE UP FOR $79.99 AS U WILL NOT FIND IT ANYWHERE EVEN RELATIVELY CLOSE TO THIS SALE PRICE PERIOD !! LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR " CONTRARY TO STATEMENTS IVE READ THIS CHARGING HANDLE DOES IN FACT RELEASE THE UPPER RECIEVER WHEN BITH SIDES OF CHARGING HANDLE EARS ARE PULLED EVENLY AT THE SAME TIME WITHOUT ANY ISSUE WHAT SO EVER !! CLEAN , TIGHT , SMOOTH OPERATION FROM LEFT, RIGHT OR BOTH SIDES TOGETHER EFFORTLESSLY OPERATES 100%. THE HANDLE IS WIDE ENOUGH TO GRAB QUICKLY WITH A SCOPE. THERE IS ANTI SLIP GRIP ON FRONT/REAR OF HANDLE EARS BUT IT IS NOT ROUGH WHERE A SOFT HANDED WOMEN WOULD HURT HER HANDS CHARGING THE RIFLE. I WOULD NOT PAY THE RETAIL $125.00 FOR ANY CHARGING HANDLE. EVEN THE $79.99 IS HIGH FOR ANY CHARGING HANDLE IN MY EYES BUT IF I WERE TO CHOSE ANY CHARGING HANDLE ON MARKET IT WOULD BE THIS. IF U BEND THE ROD IT IS REPLACEABLE ALSO WHERE OTHER HANDLES ARE NOT. FOR BEING A CHARGING HANDLE I BELIEVE IT IS THE BEST AVAILABLE.
Pros:
- easy large ambi operation with scope. smooth , tight tolerance, well made.
Best Used for:
- every/any type use from battle to plinking
Would recommend: Yes
