Radian Raptor-LT Charging Handle

The Radian Raptor LT represents the perfect balance of performance, durability, and value in an ambidextrous charging handle. Building upon the legendary original Raptor design, the LT (Light) variant maintains the same 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum core while incorporating a high-strength fiberglass-reinforced polymer over-mold that reduces weight by 9% to just 1.2 ounces. Despite persistent myths, the Raptor LT is not a "plastic handle" - the high-quality aluminum construction is identical to the original Raptor.

The ambidextrous design allows operation from either side of the rifle, making it invaluable for left-handed shooters and anyone who needs to operate their firearm from unconventional positions. The large, textured latches can be activated with a thumb, finger, or palm strike for fast weapon manipulations. Every edge on the Raptor LT has been machine-finished for smooth operation that won't snag on gear or clothing. The MILSPEC Type III hard-anodized finish topped with the polymer over-mold provides exceptional corrosion and wear resistance.

Real-world users consistently report smooth, even operation with no drag or resistance throughout the charging stroke. Many shooters who own multiple versions of the Raptor charging handle prefer the LT for its combination of light weight and excellent texture. At $59.95 MSRP, the Raptor LT offers the legendary Raptor quality and performance at a more accessible price point. Available in Black, Flat Dark Earth, and Gray, the Raptor LT has become the gold standard for AR-15 charging handle upgrades and is featured in builds by top trainers and competitive shooters worldwide.
