Choosing a Radian Raptor Charging Handle

I have a rifle in which I installed a Radian Raptor charging handle and a Battle Arms Development BCG. The two used together makes the action like glass. I have no comment on which charging handle you choose – but I do recommend one of the models as you see fit.

Got these on three of my guns. They also make a nice ambi selector you can set up for normal or 45 degree short throw.

The SD is fantastic short barrel or not, gives the gas a way out of the bolt face and carrier. Design to aid in reliability and reduced face gas with MK18 10.3 barrels suppressed, my 20 inch is way less dirty with it, without a suppressor.
Downsides- Wide handles give a lot of snag points. Great with scope and or redimag. Slick side uppers and skinny mlok rails can cause it to be the widest point and easily caught. If its a lightweight or minimalist build choose handle width carefully.
