Gun Charger Handle

A gun charger handle, also known as a charging handle, is a component found on firearms, particularly on rifles and some handguns. It is typically located on the rear of the firearm's receiver or slide.

The primary function of a gun charger handle is to manually manipulate the firearm's bolt or slide. By pulling or pushing the charging handle, the user can either chamber a round or clear a malfunction. This action is necessary for loading or unloading the firearm, as well as for conducting immediate action drills in case of a malfunction.

The design and location of the charging handle can vary depending on the type of firearm. For example, on an AR-15 rifle, the charging handle is typically located on the rear of the upper receiver. On a semi-automatic handgun, the charging handle may be located on the slide.

It's important to note that the term "gun charger handle" may not be a widely recognized term in the firearms industry. The more commonly used term is "charging handle."
