What is the RADIAN WEAPONS - AR-15 Raptor-SD Ambidextrous Charging Handle FDE?

The Radian Weapons (formerly AXTS) silencer-optimized Raptor-SD™ features a ported shaft designed to redirect gasses down and forward, away from the shooter’s face when shooting suppressed. Its ambidextrous design allows rapid palm "blading" or finger-thumb charging of the weapon, ensuring the motion is fluid and fast from either strong or support side. The Raptor-SD is compatible with most AR15/M16-pattern rifles.

  • Designed & Manufactured in the USA
  • Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum
  • Milspec Type 3 Hard Coat Anodized Finish w/ Cerakote Color Options

Perfection
Brownell’s is the best!! All around, the website, easy pay options, excellent service, fast shipping!! Love’em! This part is as important as the trigger on my build. Excellent product. Fits perfectly. Looks amazing. Cycles through, feels great in the hands! Assists with the gas as advertised! Get one, you’ll love it! Thanks, Matthew
