usmc90 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 On a diffent note to all that still want the extended handle..your factory one can be modded to get that look/function.. I have seen this done to a benneli and what the guy did (i seen it work) was to take a small peice of aluminum pipe about 3/8" dia. and about an 1" long ,,slide it over the existing handle a then fill the remaining area around it with a 2part epoxy ..just a thought for those still wanting to run one to give it a try???That's a good idea, like JB I'm guessing, but then you have a pretty permanent modification. yes its permanent to the handle..it can be replaced with another factory one though....will still go in and out the same just a bigger finger pull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlpressley Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Extended charging handles are in the works. Here is a quick picture of the prototype that will be available. The final product will be cerakoted (maybe anodized) in black. Please let me know if you would be interesting in purchasing one. Quick cell phone pic for reference.

Just from our bad experience in this so far, I really hope that cut in the bolt lock up is doing to be a detent, and not a channel like in the photo.

hlpressley Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 This handle was produced exactly the same way the factory handle was in terms of installation and lockup. If your factory handle works, so will this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your factory handle works, so will this one. Well I can tell you for sure, my factory handle has a detent cut. That was part of the reason the second handle I was working on didn't work. From what Kyle's experience is working off a plan that fit my gun, it would not fit his. Just giving you what our experience was in trying to get a working handle. sent from my damn tappy device...
