The Geissele Super Charging Handle (SCH) 5.56 in black is an ambidextrous charging handle for AR15, M4 and M16 rifles, as well as the HK416 and MR556 (Geissele part no. 05-313B). Geissele Automatics machines it from a solid block of aircraft grade 7075-T6 aluminum and finishes it in Type 3 hardcoat anodize. The levers are dual contoured like an M14 charging handle, with radius cuts in both axes and a checkered handling surface for use with gloves. A heightened rear lip helps reduce gas blowback to the shooter on short barreled and suppressed rifles.
