Hey Guys,
I purchased a SIG 556 SWAT two years ago and ran in to a problem with the charging handle/cocking lever. The old design had the handle turned upwards which would make it difficult if using an EOTECH. So I purchased an aftermarket one that folded downwards which solved the problem unless I sidefolded my stock. Then the downward one would interfere. I tried a straight charging handle off of one of my friends newer SIG 556's and it did not interfere with anything. I am wondering if anyone has a part number for the current "straight" charging handle? And any idea where to order one from? Is SIG the only place that would have such an item?
Thanks in advance,
Brian
