Meh, the price is fine. Same as raptor basically and I don't think I've ever paid more than $65 for a raptor. Just have to wait for sales.

I predict in five years we'll see charging handles with ambi latches the size and shape of your average coathanger and capable of producing a small amount of lift while running.
Looks like a nice piece to me. Priced right along with my Raptor and the Badger Ord. gen 3 (which I'd not seen til this thread). I like the 'gasbuster' lip also. Always nice to see more choices for ambi handles, if the Geissele handle is as well made as their other stuff (and not something made outside that Geissele slapped their name on) I think they'll move a lot of these.
That looks nice.
Now that Rainier doesn't sell the raptor I'd be interested in these two new offerings. The Badger looks to have softer latches, I carry a rifle close to my with just a T-Shirt on a lot. Not being stabbed is always really nice.
I'd give then both a shot. It would be nice if they were cheaper than a raptor, but at least they are not more. Giessele stuff is on sale in various places often enough i'd feel confident I could pick one up 20% off at some point if I was vigilant.
I'll bet the guys at AXTS are pissed that their design is being ripped off. From a purely aesthetic point of view, the Geissele charging handle looks pretty nice. Possibly nicer than the Raptor. I love melt job Geissele did to their version.
