    djegators, Thanks for sharing the pic and your thoughts. This looks like it's going to be a great charging handle and I can't wait to try one out. On a side note, right now I'm more interested in the new scope mount. It looks like a winner too.

    So does it dethrone the raptor?

    Also received both a Raptor and a Geissele for my rifles. Both are nice and high quality, but the Geissele is a 11 where the Raptor is a 10.

    That looks like a solid piece of equipment. I'm in no hurry though so will wait for black friday sales. I love good gear, just not at full prices.

    I got my noveske branded one back home, waiting until Christmas leave to finish that rifle off. Still waiting on the surefire warcomp that's been on order since April, waiting on some Black Friday noveske sale for the chf 16 barrel.

    My thoughts exactly. My raptors are great....but wouldn't mind having another G on the rigs!

    Finally able to find one in stock and grabbed a black charging handle from Primary Arms. I've been running the same Raptor on 3 different duty guns for probably 10K rounds and love it. Before using a larger/ambi charging handle I thought they were gimmicky and just a waste of money. Main reason I was interested in the Geissele was hopefully to help with gas to the face. On my BCM 11.5 with a Saker 556K it's pretty terrible.

    Just got it today and out of the bag impressions are positive, as with all G products I've had experience with. I believe they're already pre-oiled with G Juice, as it smells like it. Weight is similar as are the overall dimensions, the G's latches are just a hair wider. I wasn't sure I'd prefer the G's curved latches over the Raptor's straighter latch, but I found just working the handle I like the G more in feel; this could be subjective much like straight vs curved triggers.

    The G has 3 roll pins vs the Raptor's 2. Finally the G has that raised lip which I'm hoping will help with the gas to the face. I plan on doing the RTV trick to the Raptor and compare the two for kicks.
