I saw what Aero Precision offers and that patent no. got my interest. (https://www.aeroprecisionusa.com/ar15-ambi-charging-handle). Looks like a generic design that has been brought by various vendors. PSA & Arm or Ally also has one AFAICT.
Here's the patent. (https://patents.google.com/patent/US7832322B1/en)
I've also noticed that this charging handle got 4 roll pins where most ambi ones got two. The bottom piece holds these non-reciprocated latches in place (with roll pins) & connected by the roll pin on the top left (or bottom right). The hook is also an independent component.

Soo...Is it over complicated for a charging handle? I'd guess that wouldn't be good. Are there any advantage to separate moving parts like so?
