AR-15 CHARGING HANDLE – CERAKOTE FDE
Gorilla Machining Billet T6 7075 charging handles are AR-15 mil-spec style charging handles and will do the job just fine. Unfortunately many manufacturers are putting out sub-par charging handles in an effort to cut costs. This is why we chose to release a new Enhanced Mil-Spec Charging Handle. The first enhancement is that the handle itself is machined from billet aluminum. We find that billet gives us a more rigid handle and we don’t have to worry about inconsistent forgings. Rapid, single handed charging using the support hand tends to produce off-axis stress, this makes rigidity one of the most important attributes of a charging handle. We’ve further enhanced the handle by blasting the ‘T’ portion of the handle prior to anodizing, while leaving the rest of the handle completely smooth. This provides improved grip and a more durable finish for the external portion of the charging handle while the smooth part of the handle reduces friction to provide a smooth action.
