Just bought a BCM upper with centurion 12 hand guard from a fellow calgunner without a BCG. I am having an issue with the charging handle not seating In properly and won't even slide at all it gets stuck. I don't know which brand charging handle it is . I also have another upper that I tested with and it slides in just fine. Do guys think there are different types of sizes on the charging handles or I have defective upper? Please help very frustrated if the seller knew this issue .

Look inside the upper for defects. If so you might be able to use a small file to smooth it out. Post pics of inside the upper. The shafts of charging handles are all only one spec. They are universal, tho AR10s I believe are different. Its an upper issue. The guide for it probably got machined a little off.Last edited by OGPhantom; 02-17-2013, 2:31 PM.ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ

So I drove over to my buddy's house and used his charge handle and it fit perfectly fine. I don't think it was the issue with the BCM UPPER.for some reason the charge handle that I have is a little too wide as same with my brothers
. I am releived now I thought it was a defective upper from BCM.Comment

Well if it had been the upper the good news is that BCM warranties their products for life. IIRC they have the best warranty in the industry.Oppressors can tyrannize only when they achieve a standing army, an enslaved press, and a disarmed populace. -- James Madison

separate the upper from lower.
Flip the upper and put the charging handle in. Slowly slide it in.
When it stops, check to see what the problem is. Doesn't seem hard to figure out the exact problem. Its its a miss aligned gas tube, fix it. If its a small imperfection on the upper, shave it off.Comment
