Today Caleb from Brownells introduces and demonstrates various charging handle options from A3 Tactical specifically designed for the BRN-180.
Unboxing and Overview
-Caleb starts by showing the original BRN-180 charging handle, highlighting its basic design and functionality.
-He then introduces the new charging handle options from A3 Tactical, which include two different styles - a grooved cutout and a round design, both made from aluminum and steel.
Non-Reciprocating Options
-The most innovative addition is the non-reciprocating side charging handles. These handles mount to the standard BRN-180 and provide a non-reciprocating side charging action.
-These handles also feature aluminum and steel construction and come with a nub that replaces the original charging handle.
Installation Process
-Caleb demonstrates the installation of the standard round handle by removing the original handle and dropping in the new one, showcasing the ease of this process.
-He then moves on to the more complex installation of the side charging handle, detailing each step, including removing the original handle, installing the new nub, and mounting the side charging handle using M-LOK slots.
Practical Demonstration
-Caleb performs a function check, showing how the side charging handle works and emphasizing its non-reciprocating feature, which means it doesn't move back and forth with the bolt carrier group.
Key Features and Benefits
-Modularity: The new charging handles add significant modularity and customization options to the BRN-180 platform.
-Ease of Use: Both styles are easy to install and use, making them accessible for both left and right-handed users.
-Durability: Made from durable materials, these charging handles are built to withstand rigorous use.
Additional Tips
-Maintenance Advice: Caleb advises keeping the metal parts lubricated to ensure smooth operation. He also highlights the use of a polymer detent in the set screw for added smoothness.
Closing Remarks
Questions and Support: Caleb invites viewers to post any questions or comments below the video and encourages those needing further assistance to call the tech line.

The mlock set up will make clearing a malfunction impossible with removing the mag.

I don't really understand the nonreciprocating model. It blocks what looks to be part of the ejection path, especially when clearing and is very far forward.

There is bullpup conversation kit and in that configuration the bolt is really far back. With the forward handle it’s in a much better position

I didnt think of it much when i bought it, but now, after i bought the brn180, and became a tad bit unhappy with its accuracy, i realized it kind of sucks being stuck with their proprietary barrel. I took it off, and it sits in the corner. I feel like i wasted $800 on something i cant really fix. Unless the put AR-15 barrels on the next one, it aint worth it for me.

That forward charging system makes no sense to me. It's pointless if you're left handed, and seems like an outright hindrance if you're right handed.

At 3:44, looks like it'll require a little training to charge it with the dust cover closed. The original charging handle's shape probably keeps your fingers out of the way.

I have the first two styles of charging handles and prefer them to the original 'dog leg' style. Although I appreciate the spirit of the 'non-reciprocating' assembly, the design execution raises concerns.

@Scott-qq9jd
@Scott-qq9jd 4 месяца назад
The weird forward charging handle isn't for standard BRN-180s. It's for BRN-180s on bullpup conversion lowers. Not my cup of tea, personally, but it makes way more sense than using it on a standard lower.
@XrayMike17plus1

@grben9959
@grben9959 4 месяца назад
The forward charger seems iffy to me. Too many added points of failure just to move it like 4 inches. I'm sure it'd be just fine for 99.99% of us, but for me it undermines the cool factor of the thing and there's no improvement in utility (I'm not a competition shooter or anything where the fraction of a second would matter). I do like the straight handles that drop in because they could give a little more clearance when mounting optics. Only critique on them is that they're two piece construction instead of just machined from a single bit of steel. I'd probably loctite the screw that holds the two parts together.

You know, originally I thought the forward charger only made sense if you dropped the upper onto a bullpup lower, for right-handed shooters, that is. But looking at it, it might be easier to charge with a scope or a red-dot than the standard charging handle.

You do realize you're watching and commenting on a suspicious video RIGHT NOW, right? Your account, IP address, etc. Hell, they can track you even when using a VPN by fingerprinting your browser/computer. Good luck!
