Okay guys my parts are finally starting to roll in for my new build and have a question. Is this item really worth three times the cost of a standard charging handle. If it is fine but what sts it apart from a standard one. I kinnda feel a steel one would be more robust than any of the aluminum ones at there, but what do I know. If you have other suggestions or additional info I would love the input BEFORE I drop $85 on this item. I am looking for the best built parts for this build because it could be awhile before we can by them if the AWB gets passed by our NEW Government of Change.

Thanks guys, Rhett in Az

Well you could always pick up some RTV silcone and make your own for about $3. There's a sticky some where on a DIY Ghost buster, really easy and pretty effective.

I bought one but haven't shot enough to really know. I will say it's easy to grab onto in a hurry.

On my last deployment to Iraq, our armory swapped out our normal charging handles for these. I didn't really see the need for a bigger charging handle. One complaint I had was that the charging handle would catch on my vest and would pull the bolt back ever so slightly. I would rather have a bigger bolt release tab.

If you ever had gas get you in the eye shooting an AR you would appreciate the Gas Buster. I would like to (eventually) upgrade the entire fleet :lol: . I don't know why some rifles gas through the charging handle but they do. Even a gentle puff in the eye (I do wear glasses when shooting) will water my eyes. I think it's because the gas is spent gunpowder and that's why it's so irratating. If that small amount of regular air blew into your eyes I doubt it would cause as much trouble. Nothing worse than shooting a tournament with the clock running and have your eyes water so bad you can't see. Anything that increases safety and the shooting experience in general I'm for it.
