Radian Raptor LT Charging Handle AR15 Blk is an ambidextrous charging handle designed for AR15/M16 compatible rifles. It is based on Radian's Raptor-LT design, featuring handles machined from 7075 aluminum, MIL-SPEC Type III hard anodized, and overmolded with fiberglass-reinforced polymer for maximum durability. Ambidextrous functionality ensures a secure grip from either side, USA manufacturing guarantees consistent quality, and a limited lifetime warranty completes the package. Available in black, flat dark earth, and gray, matching Magpul color schemes; this model is the black AR15 version.
The Raptor-LT utilizes the same patented ambidextrous functionality as the original Raptor but adds a lightweight and durable polymer overmold. 7075 aluminum construction and MIL-SPEC Type III hard anodizing ensure long-term durability, while fiberglass-reinforced polymer enhances grip and ergonomics. The design is intended to be reliable and maintenance-free, providing a secure charging grip even in varied handling situations.
The Raptor-LT is available for both AR15/M16 and AR10/SR25 platforms. This product is the AR15 version; Radian provides examples and exceptions for AR10/SR25 version compatibility, listed below. Examples of AR10/SR25 version compatibility include Aero M5, STAG-10, Armalite AR10, Knights Armament SR25, Daniel Defense DD5 V3/V4/V5, and models using the DPMS Gen1 platform. The AR10/SR25 version is not compatible with SIG716, Savage MSR10, or Smith & Wesson M&P10 models, as they use proprietary charging handle solutions. All Radian products are designed and manufactured in the USA and come with a limited lifetime warranty.
