User Beware: Potential Issue with Magpul LR Sight / Geissele Charging Handle

[TexasAggie2005]

It happens with multiple brands of offset sights where they can make contact. It is just how it is unless you want to move them forward, which may or may not be an issue depending on equipment issues and user preference.

I had offset sights on a few weapons, that eventually got to feel they were just about the most useless thing on the weapon, so I pulled them. I'll happily point out that is my own personal experience, and that everyone else out there is going to have their own uses and needs. Currently, I have no legit use or need.

Agree regarding offset sights, but just wanted to note that my issue is not with offsets, but the Magpul MBUS Pro Long Range rear sight.

Zero would be effected very little....move it forward a notch, touch up the handle and get back to shootin!

True, but the damage is already done and won't get worse, so I don't see a need to move anything now.

Grabbing the handle on both sides is also an issue that is becoming apparent for some people, especially under stress. Regular handed people who blade won't see it happen though.

Sorry for the necro, but does anyone know if there is a similar issue with the non-LR MBUS Pro rear and Geissele charging handles?

Thanks!

None at all.
