I have the Colt LE901 (308 WIN) and I would like to replace the stock charging handle (CH) with and ambi/oversized handle due to the size and position of the scope BUT, the LE901 has a proprietary CH and the only replacement available is the plain-jane stock handle and I haven't found a single aftermarket CH for which the manufacturer says will fit the LE901, usually they specifically state that their aftermarket CH will NOT fit the LE901. (Bummer)
My question is twofold; first, does anyone know what the difference(s) is/are among the various 308's AR CHs? Second, could an aftermarket CH, such as the AXTS Raptor, be modified somehow to work in the LE901?
Thanks.
