World of a difference - Manticore Arms Switchback Charging Handle

My Manticore Arms Switchback charging handle arrived today (01/12/2024) and it took me about ten minutes to install while watching their video on YouTube. The installation was very easy using a small hammer and a punch to get the pin out of the OEM charging handle. The Switchback charging handle makes the racking and slapping down of the handle super easy now. I was practicing my reloads to get more familiar with the manual of arms for charging the weapon and reloading mags with my Magpul dummy rounds. My pinky and ring finger did not get enough real-estate when racking the weapon and slipped off bruising the edge of my hand and getting some scratches. I knew this to be a problem on some of the forums and they mentioned the Manticore Arms Switchback. I looked around online and found the best price on Opticsplanet with free shipping. So I purchased it on January 3 and it arrived on January 12th with the free shipping. Very satisfied with my purchase and highly recommend it if you have a Steyr AUG M3 M1.
