AR SN-ACH CHARGING HANDLES Reviews & Ratings

The SN-ACH (Suppressor Normalized Ambidextrous Charging Handle) is a patent pending modernized, feature filled charging handle that will satisfy any AR15 user. The SN-ACH features a gas check groove and a suppressor gas vent that reduces gas in the face of the shooter when using a suppressor. Configurable levers were also added so that a user could choose to run the included large lever, which works with gloved hands, or purchase and modularly use the smaller levers (available separately) without having to buy an entirely new handle at a excessive cost. The bolt carrier engaging hook features durable reinforced geometry for 30% increase in strength over milspec handles and approximately 3 times as strong as inferior 6061 handles which routinely break under hard use. Fitment bearing surfaces on the handle mating ensures reduced wobble fitment with the AR-15 and AR .308 upper receiver. The handle is made from 7075-T6 aluminum and hard coated for optimal wear resistance- the Griffin SN-ACH is the finest charging handle available for the AR series family of firearms.

AR15- fits all typical AR-15/M-4/M16 family firearms
AR .308- fits Armalite AR10®, KAC SR25/M110, DPMS LR308 rifles and rifles with SR-25/AR10/LR-308 compatible charging handles.

Fantastic

Have this on a Stag Arms AR-10, the fit an finish are perfect, and work flawlessly with my Rubber City Armory BCG. Theres more purchase on the release levers than youd realize, which is great. Much improved design over a standard charging handle.

My new favorite

Since purchasing my first suppressor I purchased my first SNACH and fell in love with it. At this point Ive retired my old go to charging handles and installed one of these on all my ARs. When suppressed, the gas mitigation away from my face with one of these is more than adequate to allow shooting suppressed to be fun. If your considering one of these I doubt you will be disappointed.

Very Good Charging handle

I am using it in a 300 blackout ar pistol. Works great

Works as advertised

Just tried out the SN-ACH with my Sandman-L. No more gas to the face. It works better than another name brand that is more expensive.

Best value Ambi CH on the market!

The SN-ACH has it all, high rear shelf to block gas, a right side port to redirect blowback, ambi functionality, and reinforced front geometry making it one of the strongest charging handles available today. But it now, you won't be disappointed!

Buy a Radian Raptor instead

I originally bought this since the raptors were not in stock. Now 500 rounds later I wish I had never bought it. When running a suppressor it did almost nothing to mitigate any gas to the shooters face. The ambi functionality is temperamental at best, there were many times where the latch would not disengage when pulling either side of the CH. Speaking of the latch disengaging it would work loose under recoil and the CH would reciprocate and hit me in the face. The arms of the CH are too long and will dig in to you if you use a sling for your rifle. I would not buy this even of it was half the cost they are asking.
