Note that the DE is anodized and looks brown like the RIS II rail, but they are also able to cerakote them for a more accurate FDE. Thanks for the heads up compuvette! Thanks for the link. I'm confused though...so PRI will cerakote these for you from the factory? I don't see that option. Ryan, I called their main line today and ordered the CH by phone. The gentleman who fielded my call was super cool and gave me the part # and explained the coloring details and mentioned they offer cerakote as an option. I didn't check on pricing for that, but I'm guessing calling in is best. GL! Well, hopefully it's not too late. I already ordered two of the DE charging handles with the combat latch through their site about 30 mins ago. I just shot them an email reply to my order confirmation email, and also used the contact form on their site - both asking if they could cerakote my charging handles FDE. To update for anyone looking to get a dark earth cerakoted (instead of anodized) PRI direct from the factory...I'd recommend calling them to accomplish it. I didn't get a response to my email requesting them to cerakote the charging handles in my order. I did however already get a shipping confirmation/tracking email. So I'm guessing both of mine are coming anodized. Not a huge deal. I actually think the anodized dark earth will look better on one of the rifles I'll be using it in. I'll just have to order another one over the phone to be cerakoted in dark earth, and sell off my spare anodized one on the EE. |

Talk to me about the Gasbuster, boys. You all conned me into getting this damn can, and now it seems my overpriced charging handles may be sub-par

Didnt think I'd want or need one (gasbuster CH). Running mine at the outdoor range I couldnt tell the difference in gas from before I bought the can. Wasnt really any there to be an issue.
Shot last weekend at Athena Gun Club, and doing a couple of quick strings... it was making my eyes tear up a bit. Guess I'll be ordering one too. (I'm torn between FDE and Black, so post pictures everyone when you get yours!!! ) |

On another overgassed note, where do you get your H buffers from? Ive come across a total of one on the EE, and it was beat to shit. Looked like it lived on a 7 inch sbr with a half inch gas port for three billion rounds. I wish I saved the pic, that thing was crusty and charred looking lol |

Not really understanding Spartikis's reasoning for posting or shitting on other peoples stuff... its a clone thread. When hes out of the mil (if he even is in) he wont have access to it either, and will be in the same boat as everyone else here. (since dealer post samples are a disappointment as well) Back on track, does the PRI gasbuster make a noticeable difference? Or only slightly? |

You guys that have shot with a gas buster, where does it push the gas to? I shoot lefty and I've always understood it to force the gas out of the right side of the handle(and right into my face)

So far, it has been a bit out of control Mine's a DD barrel, with a 556RC, but has a Syrac on it. Its set to the first click that will lock the bolt back on pmc bronze, suppressed or unsuppressed (figured that is the lightest load the gun will see) Outside I dont notice any gas at all, but indoors apparently is a different story. |

Thanks, ShiftSix.
Another good question from CYoung that I look forward to hearing the answer on. |

With my Surefire RC and Gas Buster, I don't notice any gas when shooting. With my AAC and Gunfighter, I get blasted. It works for me.

Wearing eye pro with more wrap-around protection should mitigate the issue. Bear in mind, I am describing the Gas Buster as shot suppressed. The can changes everything (meaning WAY more gas pressure) on the CQBR and I don't think Crane would have bothered with a gas redirecting charging handle if they didn't see it as a substantial issue. I had to go to an Ophthalmologist and have four clogged eyelid duct pores lanced. This was caused by shooting my CQBR suppressed NTCH with non-wrap-a-round eyepro. If I had to guess, I'd say I shot 300-350 rounds that day. I think us lefties should get a pass on this. |

I knew I picked the right one when she was the one who suggested I purchase the suppressor before we had to buckle down and save for the wedding/ honeymoon.

It's a really nice facility, and enjoy the fact they don't care how quickly you shoot unlike a lot of other public ranges. For me it's a toss up on where I go, depending on weather and what I am shooting between Athena and American Shooting Center. If you have any different range suggestions or you or anyone else wants to go shoot in the Houston area, just let me know |

Am I the only one thinking multicam is a strange choice for the Coast Guard or do watercraft have more vegetation these days? Your question was answered two posts below that photo.

Thanks for that link...I haven't even shot my CQBR suppressed yet, just my 9" AAC with SDN-6(which obviously doesn't have substantial blowback). I've often wondered how feasible it would be to design a charging handle almost exactly like the PRI except have a hinged "swing-gate" on the bottom with a Y shaped channel and you could swing the "gate" to direct the gas to either side of the handle. Maybe I should have kept this idea to myself and filed a patent? Or am I an idiot? Sorry for the derail |

Just threw my PRI M84 Gas Buster Charging Handle with Military Big Latch on the EE if anyone's interested. Color is black. Less than 200 rounds on it. Listing is here.
ETA: Sold for $75 shipped. |

It cuts the gas blowback down A LOT. Same goes for me. Syrac on mine too. BCM gunfighter c-handle. I dont get any gas in the face with a Socom. Also have the Govnah on another 10.5. If you are questioning it, just do it. Its a dream to shoot suppressed. No gas. No recoil impulse. Its like shooting a BB gun |
