    I don’t have much we’re on the rifle that I’m using this charging handle on so I will definitely update my review if I can once I have broken in the new build to see if a little bit of mechanical where on some these parts smooths out the action. What I’ve noticed is when attempting to pull the charging handle because it only has one side Getting force on it it feels like it’s talking to the side and providing additional resistance to being charged. Aside from that the build quality fit and finish is pretty dang good looks good and feels good it’s lightweight and articulates smoothly.

    I used to be the "cheapest charging handle possible" guy until I got one of these. It's worth the extra money. Some of my scope cover a basic charging handle so getting my fingers under the scope to pull the lever is tedious. The lever handle on these is so easy to use and sticks out past the side of the scope so you can grab it easily. But even on the units without scopes, this is just better, easier and faster to use. I'll be converting all my AR-15s to these. I just wish they made them for the AR-10.
