Radian Raptor-SD Charging Handle – Suppressor-Optimized Control for Your AR-15

If you're running a suppressed AR-15, the Radian Raptor-SD is the charging handle you’ve been waiting for. Built for serious shooters who demand control and comfort under pressure, this ambidextrous handle features a patented ported shaft that redirects excess gas away from your face — making your shooting experience cleaner and far more comfortable when running suppressed.

Crafted from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminum and finished with MILSPEC Type III hard coat anodizing, the Raptor-SD combines strength and precision with flawless function. Whether you’re shooting competitively, on duty, or running drills at the range, you’ll appreciate the smooth operation and enhanced ergonomics.

Why Choose the Raptor-SD?

Unlike standard charging handles, the Raptor-SD actively mitigates gas blowback, a common issue for suppressed rifles. The gas ports are strategically machined to vent pressure down and forward, keeping your focus on the target — not your eyes watering behind optics.

Pair that with Radian's renowned ambidextrous architecture, and you’ve got a charging handle that’s fast, intuitive, and built for either hand or shoulder.

Key Features:

Ambidextrous controls – perfect for strong- or support-side use
Ported shaft design – reduces gas to the face when shooting suppressed
Precision-machined 7075-T6 aluminum – ultra-durable and lightweight
MILSPEC Type III hard anodized finish – corrosion-resistant and tough
Smooth, consistent pull – ideal for high-stress or rapid-action scenarios
Drop-in fit for AR-15/M16 platforms – no gunsmithing required

Compatibility

The Radian Raptor-SD is designed for use with AR-15/M16-pattern rifles and fits most standard upper receivers. It is not compatible with AR-10 or .308 platforms.

Who It's For

Suppressor users who need gas management
Left-handed shooters looking for true ambidextrous function
AR builders who want premium performance from every part
