extended charging handle latch!

[tvfreakarms]

Is there any extended charging handle latch that would attach to my current pof charging handle? The extension needs to be on the right because i'm a southpaw.

Thanks.

We carry them, but they are back-ordered right now.

By the way, this is Alvin:


The guy that works for us is named Elvin Common mistake though, people call him Alvin all the time.

I'm looking for just the "latch" that goes on the existing POF charging handle and it extends out on the "right" side. So that way i can just use one hand to pull the bolt back. I'm not looking to buy a new charging handle.

I have seen extended charging handles fail during a Bennie Cooley class. The extra pressure exerted on a 1/16" roll pin makes most of these handles unsat for a fighting gun. I recommend the BCM Gunfighter handle because its design does not rely on that small roll pin.

Yes. But i think you have to have the badger charging handle. I will email them to make sure if that's true or not.

Like this one? Fulton has... looks like crap but I guess it's what you're looking for without buying a new handle.



IMHO... get a new righty handle.

Hi tvfreakarms,
I bought my Badger Ordance Tactical latch that is for AR-15, M16, AR10, & SR-25 at TDS Guns in Rocklin
for $24.95 + tax. Give them a call. They had them in their back storeroom.

The badger and PRI tactical latches will work on any standard charging handle, you just knock out the roll pin and put the extended latch in place of the standard one.

The standard charging handle is designed to only have the latch on the left side so you probably will not find a latch-only solution for a left-hander, other than the Fulton one that was already posted.

I really don't understand why you would want the latch on the right side. It seems to me that having it on the left side is better for a lefty anyway since you can charge it with your shooting hand rather than your support hand just like you would on a bolt action rifle. I know that for me personally as a righty it feels awkward having it on the left side and I would rather it be on the right.

So gun fighter is out of the question?

To keep your hand on fire control would be one reason why for me.

So taking your trigger finger off to use the charging handle doesn't make any sense. That's why i'm looking for a right side latch.

That extends out of the left side, not the right side.
