Old tech but still functional - Wilson Combat Extended Charging Handle Latch

Rivens's Review of Wilson Combat Extended Charging Handle Latch
I decided to go with a Wilson Combat charging handle for my AR-10 DMR style build. I noticed when using a standard AR-10 charging handle that even without a scope mounted the distance needed to have the bolt clear the bolt catch was much longer and it was much more difficult to accomplish. I needed something that I can actuate with one hand and clear the bell of a rifle scope. So why didn't I go with an ambi safety? I wanted something that could only be actuated in one direction not both. Overall, Fit and Finish is great, installation was easy but required a vice, 1/16 pin punch and a non marring gunsmith hammer. Once installed it works great, I found I can actuate the bolt with alot of control compared to a standard charging handle and find it to be perfect for a DMR style build or a build using a a scope.
Pros:
Works as advertised
Fit & function
Easy to install & light weight.
Cons:
Requires Tools
Snaggish
not ambidextrious
Best Used for:
DMR style builds
Using scopes
Would Recommend:
Yes
