I just got back from Bowers Tactical - what a great place!
I met the owner and Firemoth, both very knowledgeable and helpful. Besides a new BCM Charging handle I picked up some other goodies that Ineeded and Firemoth realigned the floating handguard with the top of the upper of my AR (my Eotech would not slide from the upper to the handguard).
Thanks guys!
Interesting... Didn't think that was possible. Seen many of worn and abused M16s in the Army and never saw a charging handle crack. If anything majority of the converted a1's to a2's i saw in basic still had the orgional charging handles.
