i am being a noob here, anyone see an ad or video via this site about a new style charging handle that is next greatest thing (so they claim). i saw it and now cant find it. its from a top name maker, i just forgot.

The only new one I've seen recently is the Griffin Armament SNACH.  Saw it in the New AR Products forum here

SNACH

Sounds like a great CH for suppressed AR's, but pretty pricey...

that wasnt it. i think it was a rotating ad on this site. led me to a video (i think it was on u toob) and they were shooting the ar to the left in the video. some sort of new design that has less stress, something like that. anyways, i cant find it, it will re-surface.

Only thing I've heard of is the Avalanche.  Reviews are hit or miss so far.

Plus the whole stab-you-in-the-ribs thing unless you're wearing a plate carrier.

nah, it wasnt any of those.

std handle but they touted newer/better action, something to do with the way it latches. something to do with less dragging, better pinning, etc, they called it the best handle ever made.
i dunno, it will re-surface after i get the RR Raptor handle
me just poking around at parts and stuff as i plan my ar build

Maybe dig through your browser history?  I don't know of anything aside from what's already been posted.

It's been out awhile, but the Raptor is damn hard to beat.

Are you sure it's not this one?

hmmmm, i dont think that was the initial video i saw, i have looked at a lot trying to find the original and i do recall watching that one. the one i saw had more video time with camera on back of the ar as they talked about the handle.

no worries, i'll find it again......  or maybe i wont. the raptor one is on my list. for my use i dont think it really matters.

I recall an add on the new parts page for a ambi charging handle that was similar to the raptor but but better according to the add. If I recall it was better because of the way it latched to the upper, instead of latching over it more like just rolled over or something. I think I know what the op is talking about but I can't find the post. Sorry.

The only that makes sense with what you're describing is the Mega Slidelock.  The Sintercore Tripwire and SLR Renegade are similar in operation but haven't been nearly as heavily advertised as the Mega.

That makes even more sense because I recall it was very similar to another handle being developed. So much so that the companies where in talks because they where to similar.

Plus those three names sound familiar.
