Yankee Hill Machine Oversized Charging Handle Latch

The Yankee Hill Machine Charging Handle Latch is an oversized tactical latch machined from steel and finished in matte black Melonite, brand part number YHM-281. Built bigger than a standard mil-spec latch, it gives a gloved or cold hand more surface area to grab under stress, and it is designed to bolt onto most standard AR-platform charging handles without other modification. This listing is for the latch only; it does not include a roll pin or the charging handle body itself, so it is meant as a direct upgrade for an existing handle rather than a complete replacement.
