The Lead & Steel LS-CHODE-BLK is a precision AR-15/M16 charging handle built for shooters who want a reliable, durable upgrade to their rifle's charging system. Cast from 7075-T6 aluminum and finished with Type 3 hard anodize coating, this charging handle delivers the rugged durability you need on the range, in the field, or at the bench—whether you're running a competition rifle, a home-defense build, or a tactical carbine.
Charging handles take abuse. Every chambering, every malfunction clear, every transition under pressure puts stress on the part. Lead & Steel engineered this handle from aerospace-grade aluminum, then hardened it with Type 3 anodizing to resist wear and corrosion. The result is a part that stays reliable through thousands of cycles without degrading, looking sharp long after cheaper alternatives have worn or chipped.
Fit and function are straightforward: this is a direct replacement for your AR-15 or M16 platform rifle. If you're building a new upper receiver, swapping out a worn charging handle, or simply upgrading to something more substantial, the LS-CHODE-BLK installs without modification and works with standard AR charging system components.
