This pains me because I have had good luck with many other TRYBE Defense products including the AR15 model of this same charging handle on a 300BO. I know this is a low end cheap charging handle so I knew the risk. This charging handle went on Aero M5 rifle. The charging hand immediately started binding when working the bolt that caused shaved off paint on the charging handle and making the rifle very hard to charge. I removed the handle to installed the factory handle which functioned as designed. At this point I noticed that the TRYBE handle was bent. I was able to easily straighten it out by hand as it’s pretty flimsy. Once it was straightened the rifle would charge with an equal amount of force as when using the factory charging handle. More problems arose when attempting to cycle the rifle by hand with snap caps and dummy rounds it could not feed nor chamber cartridges with the TRYBE charging handle installed and in-fact the cartridge would bind and get jammed to the point of gouging and denting the cartridge case. This was caused by the charging handle binding and preventing the bolt carrier from having enough force to properly strip and chamber a cartridge from the magazine. Because of this I cannot recommend the AR10 model of this charging handle.

I first got a set for my daughter to use on her 300BO AR hunting rifle. They are very solid when deployed as well as when they are folded up. They don’t rattle at all which is a plus. They were good enough that I ordered a second one for my son’s Diamond Back on 300bo as well. They are quick and easy to deploy as well as adjust. The feet grip enough to keep the rifle in place yet still allow for adjustments to be made without sticking or making noise. Only downside is if you use qd mounts for a sling and mount them on the side of the hand rail the bipod can get in the way depending on where you prefer your sling mount.

This is very short and doesn’t make for a good “grip” however it does make a great hand stop for shooting with a C-clamp grip. The slight angle makes it very comfortable. The M-lok works great and is very sturdy. I have a few of these on different style rifles and have no complaints.

Ordered one liked it so much I ordered another and soon to order a third. The rubber has just the right amount of tackiness. It had good dimensions and fists my 6’6” sized meat hooks perfectly. It won’t be too long and I’ll have one on every rig I own.
