      This is why I use Raptors for all my ARs. I'm a lefty and charge with my Rt hand. I love Geissele's stuff though. If the Rt side were a little larger to help clear the charging handle, I'd check it out.

      I own a Raptor, it's not even close to to the quality of the and well Geissele Super charging handle. (I still like it_ Also, most Ambi-charging handles poke into your back. (Doesn't feel very well after hours slung. Forgotten firearms channel has a second channel, "What would stoner do, video series, it's very good... I think it's a good review on it. It's the best charging handle available "currently". It moves smoothly as a finger on a well-waxed car.

    The Raptor is a medium size preferred by Professional Shooters so the left side don’t poke you in the chest when carrying in a sling. The right side is larger to clear the forward assist. Excellent engineering by Rainier Arms

      James Shaffer that is exactly right. Geissele made their SCH too large and it hangs up on plate carriers and such whereas the Radian does not. (I have both) Geissele even knows they’re too big and came out with the ACH. I love all things Geissele, but I’ll stick to my Radian charging handles and safety selectors.

    good review.
    ive retired my AXTS/Radian raptor and BCM 4×4 for the Griffin Armament SN-ACH ambi charging handle.
    i LOVE it ! its big, beefy, extremely strong and overbuilt with its large handles and huge shouldered screws instead of little roll pins.
    its extremely easy to find and super positive and smooth in use.
    its become my main #1 !
    if you need an ambi charging handle and like big and beefy, give the GA SN-ACH a try. i think youll be impressed.

    Mr. Geissele is the Leonardo DeVinci of AR parts IMO. I've looked at many of his parts. He spares nothing in the R&D part of his work, he spares nothing in his tolerances,craftsmanship, and his CNC machinist skills are unsurpassed as far as I'm concerned. His parts are as tough as they are a beautiful sight to behold. The sister company ALG Defense is just as good IMO. Keep up the superior work Mr. Geissele ! USA-1

    The primary market for ambi charging handles are for left handed shooters, period. Now as far as I know the ONLY charging handle to take into account left handed shooters is the Raptor since the right side is intentionally made larger to clear BUIS and forward assists. To say that such a thing is a con only means you know nothing on the product.

    Geisselle is just too much $$. EVERYTHING they have is quality but WAY over priced. I use CMC triggers and I’ve shot geisselles b4 but I like the CMC Better and it’s a fraction of the cost. The raptor charging handle is just as good ,again at half the cost. What really alienated me away from Geisselle was the scope mounts. A.D wanted 120 for there’s and I bought it and it’s beautiful and works great. Geisselle wanted 250 STARTING and that’s a rip off. If I was a millionaire I wouldn’t think nothing of buying there stuff because it is good. But the quality comes NOWHERE near what they cost. That’s only my opinion. Now they had these on sale TODAY for 75 SHIPPED at Brownells so that is not bad and I ordered one. I have a suppressed 300 blackout SBR and the one I bought was supposed to reduce blowback due to suppression but I had no problem
    With it before I bought the handle. But for that price,I’ll try the Geisselle

While it was all purchased at "Black Friday Sale price", it still shows that if you bid your time, wait for the big sale, you can still get top quality AR parts at @ 1/2 the regular price.
      if you knew how much CNC machining and knowledge of metallurgy is required to do this kind of work and that goes into Geissele parts, you might understand it better. I've worked in several machine shops, so I "get where he's coming from" when he designs and machines these top tier AR parts. To be #1 requires more work, better machines and great skill and knowledge. And great employees.

    ....you realize that AXTS makes this for Geissele right? Geissele just puts their name on it.

      Geissele manufacturers their own charging handle in house, they're not made by Radian (AXTS)
