I know this handle was designed for suppressed gas mitigation, which I will not be able to test in my state of residence. The safety selector feels amazing and I ended up using the 45 degree setup, with the right side as a thumb rest during precision shooting. I saw another review about the ugliness of the handle’s sides being mismatched, and I’d have to attest to that being another design strength. The longer right handle helps with gaining purchase among the forward assist and BUIS turret protrusions (wish I could add a pic here). This combo’s a good deal, and will probably get the same one for my next build

There’s nothing I can add that the other reviewers haven’t already covered. It’s an excellent design and there’s a reason why RADIAN is most people’s go-to.
The Talon is an automatic upgrade and the SD charging handle is a clever solution to a DI problem with non flow through suppressors

You might find some reviews knocking the Raptor SD for its square design, but I promise it's intentional and holds up better than you'd think. Aluminum construction makes it light, while having put just enough material in just the right places allows the charging handle to be sturdy as well. Keep it lubed and it'll work hard for you.
As for the Talon ambi safety selector, there is nothing on the market that can match the build quality and finish of this safety. Radian simply does it better when it comes to switches. I know what when I need my gun to work these parts won't disappoint. Plus, it comes in a combo, making it a perfect introduction to Radian if you've never had one, and a thrifty way to upgrade your gun. If it looks too expensive right now, keep saving because it's worth every penny.
Pros:
- Exceptional design
- Unsurpassed build quality
- Absolutely functional
- Combo package
Would recommend: Yes

Quality and function is great. OP shipped quickly. This Suppressed version makes a huge difference compared to the normal version. Ambi safety selector was a little sticky but eased up with use and lubricant. Easy to install both. OD is a perfect match

You know what to expect when you are buying anything Radian, TOP quality, unmatched performance, and great reliability! And after throwing one of these Ambi safeties on another rifle a few years ago I knew it was only a matter of time before I threw them on all my AR variant rifles and this combo is a great deal if you are looking for both together! Only need like a dozen more
Pros:
- Quality
- performance
- Function
- reliability
