BCM MK2 Ambidextrous AR-15 Charging Handle | Large Latch | 5.56/.223
American-Made Quality. Rugged Construction. Enhanced Ambidextrous Design.
Product Description
The Bravo Company Manufacturing (BCM) MK2 Ambidextrous AR-15 Charging Handle is engineered for durability, reliability, and improved ergonomics. Built from premium materials and refined through years of real-world feedback, the BCM MK2 delivers a rugged, precision-machined upgrade for compatible AR-15 platforms.
Featuring an extended large latch measuring approximately 1.10 inches beyond the main body, this charging handle provides an enlarged engagement surface for convenient operation. Its ambidextrous design accommodates both right- and left-handed users, while the streamlined, snag-resistant profile helps minimize interference with surrounding equipment.
The BCM MK2 incorporates an advanced gas-diversion channel system, featuring upper, lower, and side exhaust channels designed to redirect gas away from the shooter's face. Although optimized for the BCM MK2 upper receiver, these channels also provide improved gas management when installed in compatible Mil-Spec upper receivers.
Engineered with a redesigned internal mechanism, the MK2 reduces stress on the pivot pin and keeps operating forces closer to the centerline of the firearm. Its uninterrupted engagement surface eliminates traditional pinch points, contributing to smoother, more comfortable handling.
Manufactured from MIL-SPEC grade 7075-T6 aluminum forgings, the charging handle features a durable Type III hard-coat anodized finish meeting MIL-A-8625F, Type III, Class 2 specifications for wear and corrosion resistance.
Proudly made in the USA, the BCM MK2 combines American manufacturing, premium materials, and thoughtful engineering in a dependable AR-15 component.
