  1. Ok.. so kinda a dumb question. But on both my AR and AR pistols the bolts seem like I need a lot more pressure to pull the bolts back. Is this because they don't have all that many rouds though them? I do have some lube on them but they just seem to be a bit more difficult than how I always see others in vids. (Could just be my baby arms too…)

  2. I love the airborne charging handle, but I’ve found that the PRI gas buster charging handles (a M84 military big latch and an M84 ambi) are the best on any of my suppressed ARs (namingly my Mk18 Mod 0 and Mod 1 clones).

  3. Having never owned any weapons with a charging handle I find all of these videos very instructive. Now I have used a weapon with a CH back in the 70’s/80’s & that was a M16. So that’s why I enter every week in the hopes of acquiring something new to go out and have fun with at the range. So thanks again for the great and fun videos!!πŸ‘

  4. I have a giessele charging handle. Wanted a radian. We were out at the shop and the giessele just hit the shelf. So i grabbed one in desert dirt. Looks good and works great. Finish holds up well.

  5. Disappointed you didn't include the single-latch BCM. In my opinion, it's the golden standard of charging handles, and I use it on most of my builds. I have a Raptor on my SPR with a Viper PST II 3-15x because the scope's eyepiece can get in the way and it's nice having options. I'm debating swapping my BCM for the SOLGW Raptor on my SHTF rifle and was looking for that extra push lol but I think I'll stick with what I've got.

  6. Wished the camera angle was from the buttstock side instead of the ejection side. Most of the gasses we saw was from the chamber and couldn’t see the part coming from the charging handle

  7. Appreciate the effort and info as it was interesting. As far as its applicability to my situation – I really could care less about suppressor-friendly charging handles. There is no way I would ever pay those dollars for such a simple device as a suppressor…and then there's the tax stamp and waiting period – screw that haha!
