The Radian Weapons R0299 Raptor Charging Handle and Talon Safety combo delivers ambidextrous operation for AR-15 platforms in Flat Dark Earth finish. This matched set transforms standard mil-spec controls into precision-engineered components that enhance manipulation speed and reliability under stress.
What Makes This Different
The Raptor charging handle features dual manipulation levers that allow operation from either side of the rifle, while the Talon safety provides crisp 45/90-degree throw options. Both components machine from 7075-T6 aluminum with Type III hard coat anodizing, offering superior durability compared to standard mil-spec parts. The ambidextrous design eliminates the need to break shooting position for malfunction clearance or safety manipulation.
