Why the AR308SCH Charging Handle Matters
A charging handle is one of the most frequently used controls on your rifle — and a poor-quality handle affects reliability, ergonomics, and speed of drill. The AR308SCH is designed to be a drop-in improvement over worn or stamped OEM handles: stronger, truer to spec, and finished to resist corrosion and wear. It provides confident positive purchase for charging, clearing malfunctions, and press checks in all conditions.
Key Features & Benefits
Material: 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum — industry-standard for high strength-to-weight components.
Finish: Black finish for low glare and corrosion resistance.
Fitment: Designed to fit AR-10 / DPMS-style uppers (verify pattern compatibility before purchase).
Ergonomics: Oversized tail and textured grab surface for secure manipulation with gloved or wet hands.
Precision Machining: CNC-machined for tight tolerances and repeatable, wobble-free operation.
Lightweight: Keeps overall rifle weight down while improving durability over stamped or polymer OEM handles.
Drop-In Replacement: Simple installation — removes and installs like a standard charging handle with no gunsmithing required.
Durability: Engineered to withstand heavy use, repeated manipulations, and the stresses of high-round counts.
Performance Advantages
Smooth Operation: Tight tolerances mean the handle tracks cleanly in the upper receiver rail, reducing binding and improving reliability during rapid manipulations.
Positive Grip: The enhanced tail design and textured surfaces offer confident purchase for fast charging, press checks, and malfunction drills.
Corrosion Resistance: Finished surface helps protect the aluminum from environmental exposure so the handle keeps working after long range sessions or storage.
Tactical Readiness: Fast, dependable manipulation translates to quicker follow-up shots and easier malfunction clearance — essential for duty, competition, and self-defense use.
Compatibility & Installation
Platform: AR-10 / .308 pattern uppers — commonly fits DPMS-style systems.
Installation: Drop-in — pull back the charging handle, slide the handle into the upper receiver track until seated, then release the latch. Confirm smooth movement and full engagement.
Tools: No tools required for installation or removal in most builds; use standard receiver takedown procedures when necessary.
Fitment Note: While designed for AR-10 platforms, verify your upper’s manufacturer and pattern (DPMS vs. proprietary) for guaranteed compatibility.
Maintenance & Care
Routine Care: Wipe exterior surfaces clean and lightly lubricate contact surfaces per your rifle’s maintenance schedule to prevent carbon buildup and ensure long life.
Inspection: Periodically check for burrs, wear, or deformation, especially after heavy use; replace if damage is observed.
Storage: Store your rifle in a dry environment to maximize finish life and prevent corrosion on mating components.
