I just ordered one to try. The only thing I don't like about my new SCAR 16 NRCH is the wobble of the charging handle when inserted into the sled. I think they could have designed a more robust system, as I fear it will be a wear point after some use. I'm only up to 300 rounds on it, so I have a ways to go, and I'm waiting for my new can.

No interest? LOL

I'll post a report when I get mine, and get a change to run it on my NRCH.

It's a cool concept but personally prefer having the ambi setup.

It’s still ambi. This is just for one of the two charging handles.

I noticed the same thing with the 16S i just got so I will have a look at these.

So I now have 150 or so rounds of causal shooting through my SCAR 16s with this new charging handle.

Thoughts:

1. It still wobbles while inserted into the sled. This is a fault of FN and not KDG. The factory handle also wobbles. I doubt this will affect function but I find it disconcerting on a $3000 rifle.

2. The extra length and angulation works well. I do not find that it interferes with my VCAS sling, but I have been unable to get to my club’s  range where I can shoot behind barricades etc.

3. I feel it allows for a more effective “push” when you need to charge the handle forward (forward assist function) than the factory handle.

Overall so far so good. Need more real range time.
