KDG NRCH Scarging handle

Saw on the KDG Instagram page the other day that they are working on a new charging handle for the NECH scars... Which I'm really excited about. The factory charging handle is so loose I feel like I'm going to break the damn thing off when charging. It's like a baby tooth that's about the fall out. The angled handle is worse than the stubby handle, but they are both super loose.

I'm hoping KDG also makes a stubby handle to keep the asthetic of the stock scar, but if they don't. I'll be buying 2 when they release for sure

Looking forward to it. My SCAR 16 NRCH already wobbles a bunch

Already placed an order for 2. Hoping the fitment is better than the factory charging handles... Because mine are more wobbly than a tooth that's ready to fall out
Charging handles came in the morning still a little wiggly, but thats more so a design fault on FNs part with the NRCH sled. Overall, they feel much better than the factory charging handles. Now, if only someone would develop a folding NRCH handle

Folding option for NRCH SCARs.....Planning to go this route this looks great.

It would be nice if they would make one like this for the old school Scar.

Once my compensation claim from the VA goes though I'll be ordering a couple of these, moneys a bit tight these days with a few recent medical iasues... That's almost exactly what I want for the nrch scar. As much as I like the KDG handles, I think by design there is just too much tolerance and they are going to wiggle no matter what. The base on these looks a little more supportive, so hopefully less wiggle

Edit: just read the description... Damn, going to have the same wiggle. Still, I like the idea of them folding away, less possibility of snagging
Has anyone ordered and received that K&M SCAR Handler yet?
So I now have 150 or so rounds of causal shooting through my SCAR 16s with this new charging handle.

Thoughts:

1. It still wobbles while inserted into the sled. This is a fault of FN and not KDG. The factory handle also wobbles. I doubt this will affect function but I find it disconcerting on a $3000 rifle.

2. The extra length and angulation works well. I do not find that it interferes with my VCAS sling, but I have been unable to get to my club’s range where I can shoot behind barricades etc.

3. I feel it allows for a more effective “push” when you need to charge the handle forward (forward assist function) than the factory handle.

Overall so far so good. Need more real range time.
