Radian Raptor Ambidextrous AR-15 Charging Handle - Black

Love this charge handle for my ar 10. I was looking for somthing with more width to grab on to and this fit the bill and it also looks great which is big plus would recommend this to anyone with an ar spend the money and get this it won't disappoint.

I love this charge handle. I’ve owned a few, next to the SI T-Bone, this one is deffo my Fav!

I've used this for years and have it or the G-handle on all the rifles I build or purchase.

It allows you to get good purchase on the CH and extends the length so if you have an LPVO installed you don't have to do contortions to actually charge your rifle. It is solidly built and I have never had a single issue with any of the one's I own personally.

Overall an excellent upgrade and while expensive, it is worth the price.

Great ergonomics make this charging handle easy to manipulate when your adrenaline is flowing, hands are cold, operating with thick gloves, etc. I have had zero issues with the functionality or durability of this product, after well over 5000 rounds. Effectively, the thing works exactly as I expected an $80 charging handle to work. And it looks cool to boot. Moreover, Primary Arms sent the product on time as expected.

Just one thing to note, after a thousand rounds of running the gun hard, the finish on the top of the stem started to show scratches. The actual handle portion looks the same as the day I bought it.

Overall, I recommend this product without hesitation.

I run the Raptor Ambi- charging handle on both my ARs. Got them when they still used the AXTS brand name. I have zero complaints. Allows you to a secure purchase of your coming over the handle with two fingers or just one finger from either side. Smart design without being bulky.

I so much was looking forward to this charging handle as it seem to have great reviews. I give it two stars because it is a strongly made charging handle but, it serves me no purpose if the Latch fails to engage upper receiver. I'm going to stick with my LWRC Ambi Triggers. I can get them for $60 too during Black Friday. Any unnecessary failure like this is unacceptable. I can buy bargain bin charging handles that will engage the Upper all day long.

The go to Charger for all my builds now. This Raptor is a big leap in charging handle capabilities. The oversized grip makes manipulation very fast. Running a busy optic top rail set-up that is pushed all the back against the charging handle making getting to it difficult under stress? This is the solution. Right or left one handed charging is very easy. Running suppressed and don't enjoy the gas face that comes with a sloppy charger? The Raptor has you covered there too. It fits extremely snug not allowing that extra gas to be leaked into the area that you are drawing breath from. The tolerances on this handle are very precise. The only drawback is that if are trying to charge and be silent, like in hunting for instance, it may no go all the way into battery if you do not allow it to slam home so be prepared to hit that forward assist to push it into battery. That said this isn't the handle you would choose for a hunting rig anyway. This is a go to war charging handle all the way.

This charging handle is very light weight and easily operated with the left hand. However, the latch fails to go into battery due to a combination of a tight spring and an incorrect angle cut on the latch. The latch has too slight of an angle to go into battery with just the force of the buffer spring. Basically, the latch just hits the receiver and does not engage. To engage it into battery, I have to pull the charging handle all the way back and slam it home or gently ease the bolt carrier group with the charging handle then disengage the latch once it hits the upper receiver. I am using a mil-spec upper receiver. All other charging handles work fine. Do not waste your money on this charging handle. This was my first Raptor charging handle and I will never buy another Raptor again. Complete waste of money!

I'm some what ambidextrous. By that I mean that I hold a fork, write and bowl left-handed. But I throw a ball and bat right handed, I can box both southpaw and right handed. So depending on the circumstances I use both hands. I shoot right handed but the raptor just gives me a much more comfortable option with the charging handle. I absolutely love it and the pull is very very smooth. Add that to Primary Arms great price that I bought it for and the fast shipping made me a very satisfied customer. I will be buying more for my other AR-15's. I still love the BCM Ambidextrous Gunfighter charging handle as well.

I have raptors on all my rifles. I'm LEO and shoot run n gun matches. what the raptor allows me to do is transition to weak side during stages and run the bolt if needed while in a firing position w/o having to change hands or cant the rifle. if you only plink the raptor may not be worth it cost, but if its a working rifle or 2/3 gun rifle it is an asset.
