Introducing the very first commercially-available, fully beta-tested, real-steel charging handle modified specifically for the WE M4/M16 GBBR series rifles. Unlike airsoft charging handles which wear out and snap over repeated use or simply don't fit, or “backyard-special” modified charging handles which wear out the bolt carrier over time, this precision-modified BCM Gunfighter charging handle is designed and made to outlast your GBBR.

CNC-machined from true 7075 T6 Aluminum billet, and Hard-Coat Anodized per MIL-A-8625F, Type III, Class 2 standards, the BCM Gunfighter charging handle and extended latches feature internal redesigns over the traditional charging handle to direct the force away from the roll-pin and into the body of the charging handle during support-hand-only manipulations. This new design has a built-in backstop engineered into the extended latch and into the charging handle. As the latch is opened up, its travel is limited by these flat-surface backstops. With this travel-limiting feature, the stress is taken off the roll pin and is now redirected into the entire body of the charging handle.
The BCM Gunfighter charging handle offers 2 significant advantages:
1) Since the tiny roll pin is no longer the weak point - it is a much stronger system and the latch will stay intact even under repeated support side-only manipulations
2) With the force kept inside the body of the handle, when the handle is pulled to the rear, it moves directly to the rear and does not angle off to the outboard side, equating to much smoother operation
The new 2012/2013 version of the GFH also features completely redesigned geometry which aids in the redirection of blow-by gases - in this case, reduces green gas/propane being redirected back to the operator’s face during weapon cycling.

The Stealth Signature Series Charging handles address several issues related to both stock/aftermarket airsoft and modified real-steel handles.
1) Strength of the 7075 T6 aluminum offers almost twice the tensile and shear strength of 6061 T6 aluminum and eliminates any longitudinal failures common in cheaper aluminum or pot-metal handles
2) Precision-machined, user-serviceable CNC’d brass insert extends to interface directly with the face of the bolt-carrier and conforms exactly to the dimensions and contours of the WE bolt-carrier group, distributing forces along the entire mating surface between handle and bolt-carrier, leading to a drastic reduction in accelerated wear otherwise caused by either roll-pin-modified charging handles; or failure over time of the cam pin threads on the bolt carrier group caused by use of unmodified real-steel charging handles. See below.
3) Increased surface area contact of the handle interface against the bolt as compared to the stock handle
4) Charging handle returns to full-forward locking position upon release of handle
Each Signature Series handle is machined from a genuine BCM factory-blemished handle and are marked as such. The user-serviceable brass insert, while soft and gentle for use with stock WE bolt-carriers will withstand prolonged service life on CNC steel bolts as well. Should the time come to replace a worn insert, replacement inserts will be available exclusively from us. Each Stealth Signature Series BCM Gunfighter Charging handle will ship with one brass insert - unattached - leaving the operator with the choice of how to secure the insert. The use of red loctite or cyanoacrylate will allow servicing of the insert while 2-part epoxy will translate to a permanent install.
A very small number of these are now available and ready to ship from our webstore. 2 Variants will be available, medium-latch and big-latch.
