Started looking for one of these since my scope is as far back on the picatinny rail of my AR as possible. It's hard to pull the charging handle. This makes it is so much easier to cycle your charging handle even with gloves on. I Saw this on OpticsPlanet and since it is a Wilson Combat item, I knew it would be of excellent quality and it is. There are a number of different designs and manufacturers available for any rifle configuration. Good buy, glad I got one!

I decided to go with a Wilson Combat charging handle for my AR-10 DMR style build. I noticed when using a standard AR-10 charging handle that even without a scope mounted the distance needed to have the bolt clear the bolt catch was much longer and it was much more difficult to accomplish. I needed something that I can actuate with one hand and clear the bell of a rifle scope. So why didn't I go with an ambi safety? I wanted something that could only be actuated in one direction not both. Overall, Fit and Finish is great, installation was easy but required a vice, 1/16 pin punch and a non marring gunsmith hammer. Once installed it works great, I found I can actuate the bolt with alot of control compared to a standard charging handle and find it to be perfect for a DMR style build or a build using a a scope.

This enlarged/extended latch does increase the surface area to actuate the charging handle, but not as good as one may think. The shallow angle at which the latch tapers does not facilitate one finger actuation, but instead requires the user to hold the opposite side of the charging handle to properly pull it (Unlike the more conventional non-ambi extended latch handles like the VTLOR or strike industries).I bought this item for the 'vibes' but it was just not cutting it, so I have to give it 3 stars. the finish quality and construction is of high-quality though.

Item as described similar to the Wilson version can use with existing roll pin and charging handle, makes charging easier

Awesome upgrade to a standard charging handle! Classic charging handle latch look from a few years ago and some older video games. Only reason I didn’t leave a full star is because there isn’t a roll pin provided with the latch. So you either have to re-use the roll pin you removed or by a spare roll pin kit.

This is an excellent addition to a GI charging handle. A bit tedious to install, but is really worth it.
