    Midway has ambi BCM charging handles for $49.99 right now, but they’re not super extended like you might be looking for. Wicked deal for any red dot or iron sight build though.

    Thanks again. As I've said I'm an AR noob. I bought a cheap.. inexpensive DPMS Oracle. I will have to check accuracy with this more more decent trigger. I just hope I don't fall in the rabbit hole of mods chasing 'better'. Been there, done that. It can get expensive.

    I've purchased a few of these ^ from SI and Guntech:
    http://www.primaryarms.com/guntec-usa-ar-15-gen-4-charging-handle-latch-g4latch
    Well worth it if you ask me without going for a full ambi-CH. I don't even have any more mil-spec CHs anymore without an upgraded latch.

    As far as the binding, test fit the latch without the spring, sometimes cheaper or older CHs will get tweaked just from use or age. A little tooling around will correct it a lot easier before you install the latch.

    Don't get me wrong, I am a complete gear whore but this that CH is ridiculous. Here are a few things to prove I am a gear whore.

    The longer the gas system the better off you are, with a shorter gas tube the hotter the gas is going to be in your receiver. An adjustable gas block is nice especially if you intend to run suppressed because you can reduce the gas to the minimum needed, but they are not required.

    That 11.5 mid is probably more optimized for suppressed use, it would need a huge gas port to run unsuppressed. 11.5 carbine gas is a better all around config.
