For years the the manual of arms for the AR has evolved. In the beginning the shooter had to or was told to release their hand from a firing grip and pull back the handle with the thumb and finger or the first two fingers to charge the weapon.
Like this famous picture below.
Today tactics have evolved. The shooter of today seeks a manual of arms thats allows themself to maintain a firing grip while charging the weapon.
Enter the tactical latches of todays market as seen in the next picture
The use of extended tactical latches have allowed the shooter to maintain their firing grip while charging. The only issue is, this tactic increases the stress placed on the steel roll pin that seats the latch into the aluminum charging handle. This extra stress has been proven to bend or break the bottom tab of the aluminum charging handle.
The continued use of a tactical latch has also proven to bend the aluminum stem/shaft of the charging handle, due to the charging handle no longer being pulled straight back like it was originally designed for; it is instead being torqued to the left side because of the new tactic. This can bend the stem/shaft.
Enter a true solution to these problems
A true “FORGED STEEL” AR charging handle.
Here’s what you gain with using a standard GI design steel charging
1.No more bent or broken bottom latch tabs
2.No more bent charging handle stems/shafts
3.No more front lug shearing/tearing
4.Much less charging handle front “ear” wear
5.Much easier to charge the weapon, because of the extra heft of the handle
