If your LMT is a DI gun? Try that charging handle, I have had an out of spec charging handle before. Could be it's just the finish and will break in after shooting some.

Your charging handle is probably getting hung up on whatever stock you have on there - you never mentioned that part of it, and didn't give any pictures of what's going on.

Pictures of the problem are THE KEY INGREDIENT when you're trying to get something diagnosed, over the internet.  Many times, words-alone are never going to do the job...

Alright - I'm on this website right now, and I can't find a single charging handle for sale there, to look up what you bought.  Nada.

BUT!!!   They have a very serious amount of cheap Chinese scopes on their website, and it seems that they prefer the "Sniper" brand, for everything. 

So, with all the questions that will come up here, to solve this issue over the internet...  I highly suggest you read this topic, before going any further forward.  Provide the referenced information, with pics, like is suggested in this thread - and maybe we can get somewhere.  Until then, we, collectively here, are dead in the water, floating with the tide...

Is it lubed up?

I've had the charging handle hit the end plate that just needed a few strokes of a flat file to fix. Worked fine in the open position but hung up when closed, checked about a million things before I got to the DOH! moment.
