D.R.,

I finally concluded there's a benefit for A.C.H. for left handed folk, but overall not much benefit for righties.

I bought the BCM Gun Fighter C.H. for the larger latch it's equipped with as getting to the stock smaller latch C.H. was difficult given the scope being somewhat in the way of accessing it.

The large latch on the BCM made a big positive difference, plus the overall C.H. is much more rugged in general.

Now though, I'm still trying to decide if I ought to buy the same BCM for my K.I.S.S. rifle as the smaller, stock latch isn't as efficient.

Or, if the Ambidextrous C.H. offers further benefit for right hander's like me. Perhaps the Ambidextrous is only beneficial to lefty's.

So far, it doesn't appear so...so I'm still appealing to those who may have further insight.

Awhile back, I bought a BCM Gun Fighter charging handle for one of my AR's, but it's only operable on one side. Since I'm right handed, and the latch (I guess that's what it's called, not sure...) is on the left side, no problem.

Now, I'm thinking about getting another C.H. for my other Barbie, um, I mean AR, I wonder if paying the extra for an ambidextrous C.H. will be of greater benefit than the single side, if you will, though I'm not sure about that.

Opinions on A.C.H.'s?

Thanks!
