Reviews & Ratings for TRYBE Defense Ambidextrous Magnite Charging Handle — 54 reviews — Page 1

For the price, this is great, works as good as any other one. Very light and good grip, I have 4 of them.

High quality and a very durable product at a reasonable cost

I have 3 of these in AR15 and 1 in AR10, picked up on different occasions. I like the overall shape and function, thought I'd be able to use these in place of the nicer ambi handles that cost more.

I only get out occasionally, not a high volume shooter, so it takes me time to find issues, when they do occur. So far no issues with the 308 version, but that one gets far fewer rounds.

So far I've used 2 of the 3 AR15 size handles and both had issues. One of them started wearing out in corners where it hits the upper upon returning to battery. I've seen similar on cheap mil-spec handles that come stock with stuff. Ok.

Far worse issue with the other one - during a recent range session I noticed that it was difficult to rack the action back. Thought maybe cases were sticking, but it turned out one of the roll pins walked out, and began rubbing on the lower, and damaging it. It's gouged a "track" where it travels with the charging motion of the handle. The roll pin is so loose in there that you can pull it out with your fingers, if you can pinch it.

I am not down on "Trybe" products, I've had some good experiences, and posted good reviews, but have had some disappointments. This one damaged my rifle, so it's worse than a mere disappointment. I'll have to splurge on a Breek Sledgehammer - I've had very good experience so far with the War Hammers and Sledgehammer.

Haven't had a chance to run it through its paces but its definitely ultra light and smooth to use.

After my review about the broken charging handle Trybe made it right! Their customer service team worked directly with Optics Plant to ship me a new unit without much effort from me! Highly recommend Trybe!

First pull to charge aero precision 6.5 build was fine, second one snap! I really had high hopes for this, super light, seemed well made. Would not recommend.

Install was easy. Gun ran fine, i shot about 30 rounds thru it, went to put it back and one of the handle sides broke. It’s now useless.

Best quality , military grade, ease of use, highly recommended. Good price.

Would not fully seat into my aero M5 upper. Ended up having to grind area just above logo because material is too thick to seat properly.

The enhanced charging handle greatly improves the overall appearance compared to the standard version.
