    No BCM? Damn, I'm surprised. I use the BCM 4x4 or Radian Raptor's in all my builds.
  • @jeffhdpd782
    I love Geissele. I bought one for my ar10 thats billet and its a piece of beauty. Its number 1 in my book at least
  • @chadminor2360
    I run milspec because it catches on my kit the least.
  • @Fadaar
    Only charging handles I have extensive time on are the Radian (going back to when they were AXTS), BCM, regular mil-spec, and Breek Arms. Of them all I think I trust the Radian the most but bang for your buck wise it is very difficult to beat the Breek Arms Warhammer.
  • @v.german11b
    This truly is my favorite firearms channel. An outstanding presentation! Thank you, sir 🫡
  • @matteigtch1625
    I like my aero breach large and small. They were also free with purchase of bcg. 👍
  • @mlone7
    I love the Radian Raptor and the Breek Warhawk. I like the wide Warhawk for the thinness and for my DMR's which have big scopes hanging in the way. The Warhawk makes racking my DMR a breeze. Now for my CQB and even my fighting rifle, I like the Radian Raptor. I like the thickness of the claw and the narrower spread so it wont get snagged. That being said, Breek is a great price and more in line with what they should all be selling for and are great quality but you arent paying for a name. As far as the old style, they are cheap, can only be racked from one side, and usually the first thing that gets replaced if its on a gun you purchased.
  • I have a 20.00 ambi I purchased some years ago and it works just fine. A charging handle doesn’t get enough use and it just doesn’t have a cool factor for me to spend more than 20-30 bucks. To each their own as companies are capitalizing and laughing all the way to the bank.
  • @koffeekage
    I have a Geissele SCH and find that the forward assist interferes with manipulation of the right hand. I put it on andother rifle which had no FA. My other rifles have the gasbuster.
  • @2ndchance632
    Geissele for me. Best at keeping gas’s out of your face/. I’ve had large round count days and keeping the gas out of your face makes for a better range training days. 👍🏻👍🏻
  • @jmmartin7766
    The Aero Breach: for #1, the (much lower than other companies) price, and #2, the excellent quality product you get for that much lower price
  • @Chopper668
    I love my Warhammers. I've got one in my ar15 and another in my ar10. Building an ar15 now, putting another one in it when it's done.
  • @sidekickz2180
    I bought a cheap Presma INC ambi charging handle about a year ago. So far I've had zero issues
  • @scottlamp3097
    The Radians are fine. I have several. Zero problems, very good design. The Geissele is slightly better IMO, but the best one I have tried (for keeping gas out of my eyes while running suppressed) is the Griffin Armament SN-ATCH.
  • @aceup8819
    I was doing a budget build and picked up a Warhammer.....im hooked. For half the price and great functionality it cant be beat!
  • @ratherbe7
    Break Arms is my favorite, with nice color options also.
  • @drcoffee5588
    I went with the Strike industries Latchless CH. nothing to break, work well, locks in tightly. I run a piston ar15 so gas porting isnt a concern.
  • @vetdadon2621
    I like Radian but have had two of their ambi charging handles that one of the pins have fallen out of. Luckily one fell out on my work bench and the other I caught before it fell all the way out.
