SLR15 Rifle Specs - Charging Handle


The industry standard is with the cam lever out the left side. We are the only manufacturer that offers the ambidextrous upper receiver, so a left handed operator can put the charging handle cam out the right side. This makes manual cycling with the right hand more user friendly.


We are the only manufacturer to offer left-handed user-friendly features.


We use a Big Latch Charging Handle Cam, as we find its larger size to be more user friendly during the stress of field operations. It does not stick out so far that it interferes and gets caught and dragged across clothing and equipment, causing the bolt to come unlocked and out of battery.
