I don't know at what point charging handles will have peaked, but that's probably not it...

No pic, no info, no care. Please don't expect everyone to jump on clicking a link without info, or in this case a picture (at least).

I looks like it would be better suited being launched from a bow at a deer. I’m sure the fancy colors will make it a hit with some.
Oh cool, now a CH that can impale me on top of looking cringy.

What does it offer that a Radian Raptor or BCM 4x4 doesn't already do better and with less cringey bling? Or even the old Badger Tactical Latch, which can be surprisingly lefty friendly...
In the history of the AR-15/M16 family, has the charging handle ever been a problematic component?

In my limited understanding, only when MADE so... *casts Southpaw Side-Eye at PRI Gasbuster*
That thing looks like it could legitimately hurt me if I was doing handgun transitions or anything else where the rifle might slam up against my body.

I have a few Radian/Geissele CH's, and they're cool, but at the end of the day, A standard $15 CH works just fine.
I will add, extended charging handles suck when you don't have a PC on....Digs into you when slung. The standard one doesn't do that.
The comments in the article are pretty good.
THE dumbest CH I've ever seen. BY FAR!

Lol..
I think I’ll pass on this one. Looks like something a homo would put on a rifle.
(Not that there is anything wrong with that…..)
Can you imagine tripping and landing on the pointy end of that thing lol. Or even just feeling it digging into you when slung.
If i'm going to go with an aftermarket CH, I'll stick to BCM, Geissele, or Radian.

Yes. If you ever actually drop an AR that’s slung up to draw handgun, move, climb, whatever- this would be Sternum piercer.

Thats a sharp looking CH!
That looks stupid AF. Way too sharp and way too long on the levers. Geissele, Radian & BCM have this market cornered so really no reason to even try.
On the topic of charging handles, anyone have any long term experience with the Daniel Defense rip and grip charging handle? I generally use BCM but I've got the DD ch on a couple uppers. Wasn't sure if I should switch them out.

Nope, I got it…….
Manufacturer’s release said that thing has an integrated gas key, forward assist and incorporates snag resistant technology. Sounds awesome and groundbreaking and without those tidbits of information would have never guessed it had so many features just by looking at it. In fact, I would guess the opposite.

I may be a bit simple but my idea of snag free is a little different.
I suppose when it's buried in your back it will pull out snag free so long as it's just in and out.
According to their website the oversized latches are simultaneously easier to use with a gloved hand and wont snag on your chest rig "exposing your bolt".

Lol, definitely looks like a broadhead.
These will be popular with the same folks that put stick on hood scoops and vents on their hoods and fenders as well as those who have a plastic scrotum or huge threaded nuts attached to their bumper.

In the event both my primary and secondary go down I can tear this out and use it as a chinese throwing star. 13 year old me will be so happy.
I'm definitely getting that for the Anderson "raptor" rifle I'm building. I sorta wish I could make it reciprocating.

It makes perfect sense, when your AR stops working you can just throw the whole thing at somebody like a giant shuriken.

Now that's funny! Appreciate visions, technologies allowing such, etc; just not for me for multiple reasons. But if OP likes it, that's all that matters.
Well, I, for one, am going to run right out and not buy one.

You could use it to slice vegetables while you shoot. Or give yourself an impromptu nose job. Or both. It has the potential to be the multi tool of charging handles.

Remember those streamers kids used to have on the end of their bicycle handles back in the 70s? I'm thinking of drilling holes in the ends of my charging handle so I can also add streamers.
How is this thread still going? This would have been a thread AND account lock in the old days for shilling garbage nonsense.

Shill?
I don't have one, don't plan on buying one and didn't suggest anyone else buy one.
I thought it was pretty funny.
Seen some dumb accessories but that one takes the cake.
I dunno, this charging handle doesn't seem much different than any of the other "me too" Raptor charging handle copy cat designs out there which make up 87% of the current charging handle market.
I stuck with the Vltor charging handles after Bravo Company made the decision to make their charging handles into just another Raptor copy cat.

Can it be used to grapple up side of building to roof? A bit to pointy for my liking, but to each their own, it's your money & snagging, not mine. The orange powder coat has to be +$10, lol.
The ones I like the most are the ones that have a gas channel cut in and it exits to right side just in front of the handle.
Just as-eample, many others have a half moon cut.

Personally, I'm getting a matching MOD GRIP + FOREGRIP COMBO (https://www.tyrantcnc.com/mod-grip-foregrip-combo-red.html) to go with my new squeegee charging handle and if I have any nickels left over some ENHANCED TAKEDOWN PINS (https://www.tyrantcnc.com/ar-takedown-pins.html)

Here's two that markm would be sure to love... ;)

Hopefully this thread will continue and the "garbage nonsense" idea of no humor, both in uniform and out, is now buried once and for all. Or perhaps some would like to live in the world of "The beatings will continue until morale improves".
Gentlemen, we mock what we do not understand.
I personally don't think there is a better ch than LMT, it's the perfect size to engage and doesn't get snagged on your carrier.

I like the way it almost looks like a squeegee. You could use it to earn a few extra bucks washing people’s windshields at a busy stop light if the price of ammo doesn’t come down.

If only Billy Mays was still around... "But wait, there's more!"

LMT is solid. I grabbed a few Geissele ACH's for the same reason.

I still like the Radian Raptor series the best for my un-suppressed rifles. For suppressed rifles so far I been happy with the Breekarms Warhammer micro ** mod 2 **. It has a 1 Year Money Back Guarantee
and if at anytime the charging handle breaks or fails, they will replace it at no cost or give you a full refund for the lifetime of the product and even at the current price point!

Wmm2 indeed. It has a good gas channel in the rear.

I've got some old BCM Gunfighter CH, and one that is newer production. They are great little additions to any rifle. I tried a Geissele and it would get hung up when charging with the right side. This thing....looks like asking for trouble. I shoot only suppressed among 5 or so AR platforms, and never have a major issue with gas blowback using the BCM CH (Dead Air and SiCo cans).
Plus, AR's with red/blue/purple/etc anodizing tell me that the owner is either a girl, a child, or an idiot.

The standard Radian Raptor is my go to, have then on almost all my gun.
I am curious about the CH with gas channels and how they work shooting left handed, seems like it would be worse then dealing with a little blowback out of the ass end, but I don't know for sure.
Plus, AR's with red/blue/purple/etc anodizing tell me that the owner is either a girl, a child, or an idiot.
Or all three, probably with gender ID issues.
