    The Raptors are good kit, I use several with no complaints.
    Unlike some extended CHs they don’t dig into my Sternum when slung tight and moving around.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    I looked at all the high end charging handle’s so many Gaijin but I think I will get the Raptor SL. Thanks for your comment !

    If you don’t need ambidextrous, the BCM small latch is also nice, and about half the cost.

    I also went with a Raptor SL on my latest 5.56 upper. No problems noted, and charging was as easy and as smooth as the larger CH (Seekins DNA) I had on my old 300 BO upper.

    I have used several Raptor SL's on builds and like them just fine:


    I've also used the Raptor LT's as a less expensive option, the LT handles are overmolded with polymer:


    IMO, another nice lower profile charging handle is the Geissele Airborne Super Charging Handle. I bought a couple of these on one of the Holiday sales and currently have one on my primary rifle:

    I prefer their standard over the SL. Have two G Airborne I'd like to trade for standard Raptors.

    I like the LT over the SL (price), then G, then BCM. After getting "muscle memory" with an ambitious CH, I look ridiculous using a normal one.
