DPMS GEN 2 CHARGING HANDLES

[AL]

I bought an Adams Arms 308 battle rifle. The rifle is compatible with only dpms AR10 gen 2 parts. Does anybody know of a charging handle or charging handle latch that would fit the rifle?

Welcome to the forum feel free to post up in the intro section. I'm sure someone will answer your question soon

I am just making away but doubt that a gen 2 DPMS charging handle is different than a gen 1. 

If I wanted a new charging handle and BTW I do! I Would go to the Mechanical Armour web site and either  Email or call, ask for Van.

Several months ago this forum had a group buy offer for a 3# trigger/charging handle combo.  The trigger is no longer available. But they have the charging handle.

I just ordered a charging handle from MECH ARMOUR after getting this e-mail: this is for our forum members, and is a really good price if you use this special link!

Hey Mack, 

 

I just looked because I knew no one took down the 308AR charging handle deal page, and it is still there. So you can go to this hidden link to purchase what you need. Do us a favor and spread this link around on 308 in case others think the sales pages were removed.

Personally, I appreciate you sharing the group buy link, though. I'd read about it, but couldn't find it anywhere (and ASSumed it was long gone). I'll be ordering one when my gun toys account fills back up...

Badger latch might be your only option for now.

We were just talking about this the other day, the link is dead, thinking maybe to availability of the trigger

 

edit: never mind didn't see Mac's post
