Geissele Automatics AR-15 Ambidextrous Charging Handle - Desert Dirt
Details
Details
The Geissele Automatics Super AR-15 Charging Handle is a fully ambidextrous, dual-levered, gas-busting charging handle machined from a solid block of 7075-T6 aluminum for the AR platform.
Features:
- Ambidextrous, dual-levered design
- Machined from a solid block of 7075-T6 aluminum
- Dual-contoured, checkered lever surface for gloved use
- Extended levers for faster operation from either side
- Raised rear lip redirects gas from suppressed or short-barreled rifles
- Desert Dirt Color (DDC) hardcoat anodized finish
- Compatible with standard AR-15 upper receivers
The levers are extended beyond a standard AR-15 charging handle, so they're easy to grip quickly from either side, and the raised rear lip helps redirect gas away from the shooter's face when running a suppressor or a short-barreled rifle. Geissele's Desert Dirt Color (DDC) finish covers a range of desert terrain shades meant to help break up a rifle's outline; these shades can vary noticeably between batches and are not intended to color-match across parts. For a uniform color across an entire build, Geissele recommends a separate finish such as DuraCoat or Cerakote.
Geissele Automatics was established in 2004 to build high-quality, reliable triggers for competition, starting with the Hi-Speed National Match trigger. That trigger's success led the Department of Defense to request a select-fire version for United States Special Operations, and Geissele later brought a semi-automatic version to the civilian market for law enforcement and personal protection.

great purchase
by Nels -
As an almost exclusive BCM fanboy I thought I would give the Geissele a chance and it blew me away with the quality of the anodizing. But, ultimately it is just an ambidextrous charging handle with medium sized wings the product has a bigger ledge on it so it should better mitigate gas.
Fantastic

Geissele has fantastic products. This is nothing short of a great charging handle. I replaced my Daniel defense charging handle with the super. My 16” ddm4V7 has a LPVO on it and the larger grips make it super easy to lock in a round. I also have the air born on my 14.5 rifle and it is amazing as well. I went with the airborn on it because it just has a EOTECH EXPS 2-0 on it. Can’t go wrong with that “G,” on it.
Just incredible
by Matt
This charging handle is perfect. It’s smooth, easy to grip, and has such and easy draw to it. I have various charging handles on my other rifles but this one is simply the best.
Worth it

Always wondered if these expensive Ch actually made a difference and let me tell you, they sure do. Huge improvement over mil-spec ch in feel and looks. If you are thinking about getting one do it.
As smooth as it is stout
by Roger
This handle is the real deal, smooth, highest quality built charging handle you will find. It's truly ambi ... locks and unlocks identically from either side or both sides simultaneously. I prefer their Airborne version with the short handles, but they are no where to be found unless you buy a complete Super Duty rifle or pistol (which I have and I'm GLAD I did via Primary Arms!!) The Super Charging Handle is indeed super.
Great charging handle.
by Jeremy -
Super easy to use. The color is cool, although it doesn't really match any common color patterns. (FDE, sand, etc.) Fit is great, no binding. Very nice when using a suppressor. Absolutely no blow back from the charging handle on a 300 Blackout, 10.5" upper with an Omega; Super or sub rounds.
Smooth and Functional
by Jeff H. -
I have never used any other charging handles other than the stock mil-spec handles and this was a massive improvement to this function. The Geissele handle is very well built. It has a large serrations on the grip that make it comfortable to use and helps to keep your fingers on it if you are wearing gloves. It also actuates smoothly on both sides. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for ambi functionality or looking for an upgraded handle.
Better Than the Raptor
by Hunter -
This is the first Geissele product that I've owned and I am thoroughly impressed with it. I just want to start with the color of this charging handle - it's absolutely every bit as beautiful in person as it looks on the website. But more than that, this is the best feeling charging handle I've ever used. I have a Raptor charging handle on another AR, and this charging handle is by far superior feeling in my opinion. The curved handles are very comfortable to grab, and the entire charging handle is made with incredible precision, making it glide in and out of my rifle very smoothly. So far I'm very pleased with this charging handle and though I do not shoot my AR suppressed, this charging handle is a "gas-buster" which will definitely be nice to have if I do start shooting my AR suppressed.
