    I used a Bear Creek side charging upper for my 24" bull barrel 223 build and love it. I don't think I'll ever go back to a standard upper.

      I used a Bear Creek side charging upper to attempt a manually operated AR. It is hard to eject with factory grendel loads. Blue locktite works well to keep the handle from coming unscrewed. On a gas operated AR it seems to make little difference than a standard charging upper.

        Is anyone at all making the ambidextrous side charging upper like the old Crosshill Tech or Lars Grizzly without the rear charging handle? I know about Gibbz, Spartan, ASA, etc.. but am looking for the less chunky, ambidextrous style one... Blackwood Arms makes them but are north of $500 ..

                unfortunately they are not. I have the original prototype made and one set from production. I was told they made about 25 rifles total before LAR manufacturing was purchaced by Remington Arms, a division of the freedom group. it was shut down and from what I understand just purchaced for its equipment. I really liked the OPS 4 and OPS 6.5 recievers and buddied up with someone who knew someone and purchaced a number of items . one more 6.5 to build,,,,,

                    Has anyone had a chance to look a the Lantac Side Charging Upper? I've read somewhere it's a little thicker than other uppers and requires a longer charging handle...

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - Ronald Reagan
