Overview

Charging a Mark series pistol means pinching two small serrated ears at the back of the bolt, which is the platform's least pleasant manual of arms. Cold hands, gloves, or a stiff recoil spring turn it into a two-handed job. The halo Charging Ring replaces those ears with an aluminum ring the shooter hooks a finger through and pulls straight back.

The ring works from either side of the pistol, so a left-handed shooter gets the same purchase as a right-handed one without a mirrored part. That symmetry is why TANDEMKROSS builds one part number for the whole family: the ring covers the Mark III, Mark III 22/45, and Mark III 22/45 LITE, plus the Mark IV Standard, Target, Hunter, Competition, and Tactical and the Mark IV 22/45, 22/45 Tactical, and 22/45 LITE. Steel frame or polymer 22/45 frame makes no difference because the bolt is the same.

Finish is the only variable. The base colorways sit at $49.99 and the premium ones, including the Betsy Ross Flag pattern, run to $59.99. The ring is also the charging solution built into the TANDEMKROSS KrossFire Bolt, so a shooter running that bolt already has this feature and does not need the standalone part.

Key Features

  • Aluminum pull ring replaces the factory bolt ears
  • Works from either side for left- and right-handed shooters
  • One part number for Mark III and Mark IV, steel frame and 22/45
  • Multiple finishes including Betsy Ross Flag
  • Lifetime guarantee against mechanical failure

Pros

  • +Fixes the Mark series' worst ergonomic detail with one part
  • +Genuinely ambidextrous, unlike a mirrored charging handle
  • +Covers every Mark III and Mark IV variant on a single part number
  • +Aluminum construction rather than a polymer clip-on

Cons

  • The ring stands proud of the bolt and can catch on a holster mouth
  • Premium finishes add $10 for no functional change
  • Redundant if the pistol already runs a KrossFire Bolt
