TANDEMKROSS “HALO” Charging Ring for Ruger® Mark IV™ & Mark III™ | Black | Part: TK24N0164BLK1 | UPC: 769498482926
Run your rimfire the easy way. The TANDEMKROSS “HALO” Charging Ring transforms the tiny, slick factory bolt ears on your Ruger® Mark IV™ and Mark III™ pistols into a large, glove-friendly charging handle that’s faster to grab, easier to rack, and more secure under pressure. Precision machined and black anodized for durability, the HALO clamps directly to the bolt, creating a circular handle you can pinch, hook, or pull from virtually any angle—perfect for cold-weather shooting, competition, or anyone who prefers a bigger, more tactile control surface.
If you’ve ever struggled to get a solid purchase on the bolt—especially with wet hands, sweaty range sessions, or small-framed shooters—the HALO Charging Ring is the simple, smart upgrade that makes your Ruger run smoother, safer, and faster.
Why Shooters Choose the HALO Charging Ring
Instantly Easier Charging: Oversized ring gives you multiple grip options—pinch, hook, or slingshot—for rapid, confident manipulations.
Ambidextrous Control: Circular design works equally well for right- and left-handed shooters and from unconventional positions.
Glove- & Cold-Weather Friendly: Generous opening and rounded edges make it easy to rack the bolt with gloves or numb fingers.
Secure, No-Slip Purchase: Textured, anodized aluminum ring resists sweat, oil, and rain for repeatable control in any conditions.
Fast Install, No Gunsmith Needed: Simple clamp-on design mounts in minutes and is 100% reversible—no permanent modifications.
Competition Advantage: Speeds up clearing malfunctions, administrative loads/unloads, and press checks during Steel Challenge, Bullseye, or NRL22 stages.
Reduced Wear & Tear: More positive traction means less fumbling, fewer dropped mags mid-clearance, and a safer, smoother workflow on the line.
