The Radian Weapons R0665 Raptor Charging Handle and 45/90 Talon Safety combo delivers enhanced manipulation speed and precision for AR-15 platforms. This ambidextrous control set addresses common ergonomic limitations found in mil-spec components while maintaining full compatibility with standard upper and lower receivers.
What Makes This Different
The Raptor charging handle features dual manipulation levers that allow operation from either side of the rifle, eliminating the awkward reach-around required with standard handles. The 45/90 Talon safety selector provides crisp engagement at both 45-degree and 90-degree positions, offering shooters flexibility in throw distance. Both components are machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with Type III hard coat anodizing in OD Green for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.
