I bought this charging handle on EE a while ago. The rear is made of plastic. Anyone know who makes this?

Plastic charging handle? Are you certain that it is not Airsoft? I would ditch it.

Just the part you pull on is plastic. It's very light and works well. I'm not saying it's battle tested or mil spec. Never seen one like this.

I have seen metal CH's break, usually right at the tension point where you grab to charge it. Right where yours turns to plastic. It's not hard to break off a stock metal one, I'd be surprised if that plastic lasted one hard range session or class

Yeah, I would feel better if it was mine to toss it in a parts bin. To many well made charging handles out there that are mil spec and inexpensive to use a plastic handle.

I agree , might be a good spare to throw in the range bag. Just never seen one like it. I thought someone would know where it came from.
