Jackalope Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Picked one of these up the other day until I can order a CarrierComp one. Fit was excellent and it has a nice, knurled finish. Cons are that it spins freely while installed, and it weighs twice as much as the stock charging handle. I like the look of it though and even though it spins freely, it works great. I'm going to the range on Wednesday, so i'll have a full range report on how it affects cycling with lighter loads and also on how well my earlier stippling job on the forearm worked out.

Amsdorf Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) I got one too and can't stand the fact it spins, I've lost a good grip on it as a result. I'm definitely getting a CC when I can. Edited September 3, 2012 by Amsdorf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackalope Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 How do you lose a grip on that thing? Especially with your bear paws? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Fab Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Just an FY!, the stock bolt handle will still "rotate" while installed into the bolt. It doesn't "spin" like the GG&G but does rotate on the ball detent inside the bolt. The stock handle, as well as the Carrier Comp handle. are held much more securely in the bolt because of the larger surface area that the detent has contact with. There have been reports of the "spinner" type handles flying out of the bolt when firing the weapon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amsdorf Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 How do you lose a grip on that thing? Especially with your bear paws? Because it spins I sometimes lose hold of it while ghost loading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
