2021年1月18日 · Charging Handle - I bought the Radian Raptor LT, because I was too cheap to pay for the metal one. As a lefty, I absolutely hate the GI charging handle and anything here is an upgrade regardless of brand. Light - Unless you shoot at night, or realistically expect a defensive scenario, this is just a decoration compared to the others.

2023年11月7日 · Our handle compared favorably to GI, Radian's SD, and Silencer Co's suppressor handle. It was cool to see the existing handle was working fairly well, and we are kind of excited to try some things to see if we can improve it in a tangible way. It was cool to see the gas motion the way they were able to video capture it.

2021年9月27日 · I've had an Airborne on a 14.5" recce for a few years and really need to replace it. It's well built but the way the handle pivots + the smaller handle design makes things like emergency malfunction clearance more of a burden than it should be. After trying a ton of CHs I still come back to the ambi, old design BCM one as my favorite.

2017年3月5日 · As part of my 2017 reviews, I'm going to discuss the Radian Weapons Raptor Ambidextrous charging handle with NP3 coating. What purpose does a Raptor Ambidextrous handle server other than the obvious? Well, if you are a lefty, 3-Gun shooter or simply use your off hand, than you will benefit from this type of changing handle.

2020年8月11日 · Working with our good friends at Radian Weapons, we offer our take on the ambidextrous Raptor charging handle. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum alloy, the Raptor represents the pinnacle of charging handle design for the AR-15 platform. Our modifications to the standard design include equal length levers with solid, pocketed centers.

2023年11月5日 · In reality I just don’t use the charging handle that often, initially when inserting the first magazine but there after I use the bolt release more often. Granted I don’t find myself in many firefights but I have shot in many IPSA/USPSA rifle matches with a lot of movement and mag changes between positions but for me, it just does its job ...

2023年8月23日 · The Radian Raptor is very well made and I have them on all of my rifles that did not have an OEM ambi charging handle. I did buy one of their gas diverting models for my SBR and it did not help much. I have one rifle that when suppressed is as gassy as a Taco Bell binge weekend, the only thing that will help with that one is JB Weld

2024年4月23日 · A cheap charging handle with some RTV on the back and a hole there will beat out any of the Gucci $110 handles. Though if you plan on always shooting that upper suppressed, get a BRT gas tube. Posted: 4/23/2024 7:14:56 PM EST

2023年9月2日 · Adding some photos of the large latch size, too. Medium on the left, large in the center, and the Radian Raptor on the right. The large size is comparable to the Radian Raptor in width. Attached File Also, a width comparison versus the original BCM Gunfighter Medium non-ambi charging handle. Attached File

2022年3月13日 · I have a Griffin SN-ACH, Geissele SCH, and Radian Raptor SD. They all work great, but I did the black Permatex mod on all of them to seal off the charging handle to prevent gas from hitting my face. I would never go back to mil-spec because I like the extra surface area to yank the charging handle with my left index finger like I do on my ACR.
