AR-15 Triangle Retro 601 Charging Handle

The Perfect Piece for Your Retro AR-15

For those fans of the classic retro AR-15 look, Brownells teamed up with Nodak Spud to produce the Brownells Retro AR-15 Triangle Charging Handle.

The Brownells Retro AR-15 Triangle Charging Handle is not an approximation but a carefully researched, detailed replica of the charging handle found on early, much-sought-after "601" rifles issued to the Air Force in the early 1960s. In fact, to distinguish our reproduction from originals, we had to engrave "BRN" hidden away at the bottom to prevent these from being confused with the genuine article.

NOTE: BLEMISHED has small defects in anodized finish. It is functionally sound. You may even prefer one of these to give your rifle replica the "war weary" look.

• Features the correct triangle shape like the originals
• Fits & functions correctly in any standard, current-production mil-spec AR-15 upper receiver
• Constructed of high-grade 6061 T6 aluminum
• "Colt gray" hardcoat anodized finish

If you’re building a 601 replica using our M16A1 upper and lower receivers and reproduction stock/pistol grip/handguard, the Brownells Retro AR-15 Triangle Charging Handle is a must-have component.
