Is there such a thing as an extended charging handle or a way to get around the rear of a scope when ready to load? Damn rear eye piece gets in the way, there has to be a better way?
Once the first round goes off not a problem, but it is just a pain in the ass.

The PRI Big Latch (military model) should help you out...

Pri Big Latch certainly was the way to go! Took me more time to send Grant a paypal then to install it, came in very quickly and excellent emails to boot!
Thanks all who pointed me in the right direction!

Ditto what these guys said about the PRI Big Latch, I've got them on all of my ARs except one (and it's a side-charger) and I've been VERY happy with them.

It sounds to me that the scope might be about a 1/2" lower than it should be on a strait line weapon.
