22LR AR Front Charging Handle

This is a front charging handle design for 22LR AR patterned rifles

It is designed to bolt directly onto the top picatinny rail, no rifle modifications required

This front charging handle is similar to the MP5 slap stick design

The middle support piece also acts as a bolt close hold down

This model requires some additional hardware:

6x M3 x 25mm screws and nuts

0.25" OD dowel cut to length

The dowel length will need to be cut specific to your placement

I prefer to use carbon fiber tube from amazon, used for RC planes - its cheap, light, and strong

Do not glue any of the components together. the dowel should be loose through all pieces so that the handle can twist freely

No rifle modification is required - this should simply bolt on

See model below standard AR patterned rifles (longer charging stroke)
