MechArmor Defense Charging handles

So I've been searching through the threads on these and they look pretty impressive. Sent a pvt mssg to MechArmor and havn't got a reply yet. Most of the threads at least a couple years old. Are these still available directly through the community?

I don't think they are available.  I'm not sure if the contact is there any more.

Right now Fulton Armory is the only place I know to get them, seems like there was another mentioned but I don’t recall what it was. I wish they would get back to selling it here myself, I need a few again.

I think Larue sells them too. I know that was the Larue CH for a long time.

Ya'll still set on the MechArmor CH being the one to go with after your experience with it? I'm leaning toward it or the Raptor.

If I'm not off here didn't there used to be a couple different models of the MechArmor 7.62 CH. I only see the TacOps-1 "Sniper" version on LaRue's site.

For me the MechArmor blew away the Raptor. Better fit and finish as well as more to hang on to, that and I prefer the MechArmor style of ambi.

Can't beleive I missed them at LaRue, would had one in the last order. Not sure they made the CQB version for 7.62, might have only been for the little brother, I would buy it if I saw it.

The .308 only had the “sniper” model, which was their original. 

The AR-15 has the CQB version and the Sniper

Thanks for the intel guys! Safe to assume the sniper will play well with the AP M5E1 rec?

I ran in to an overly tight fit in a Fulton receiver once, they had one in my hands that worked fine by the end of the week. I have found them to be the best fitting CH’s of all I have tried.

Yep.

[Slugger]

Excellent news, I've got two on the way. One for the new 308 and one for an older scoped 223.

[Robocop1051]

If it’s tight, or drags a little, it’s due to the extremely tight tolerances. Just oil it up a little and rub it down real good with some 000+ steel wool. I smoothed out the finish on all mine, just for the added performance.

Thanks for the tip I'll keep it in mind!
