Strike Industries ARCH-EL Extended Latch Charging Handle AR-15 Blue Anodized Aluminum

The Strike Industries ARCH-EL Extended Latch Charging Handle is a drop-in upgrade for any standard AR-15 upper. Designed around an oversized ambidextrous latch, the ARCH-EL gives the shooter a noticeably larger surface to grab when racking the bolt, making it easier to run the gun with gloves, with a magnified optic in the way, or under stress.

Forged from T-6 7075 aluminum and finished in a hard blue anodized coating, the charging handle keeps weight to roughly 1.7 oz while still standing up to hard use. The extended latch is also aluminum, and the polished contact surfaces are designed to cycle smoothly and minimize wear on your upper receiver.

The ARCH-EL is a direct replacement for the mil-spec AR-15 charging handle and installs without any gunsmithing. It fits all standard AR-15-pattern uppers that use a mil-spec charging handle, making it a simple, reversible ergonomics and performance upgrade for any build.
