ASA Side Charging Handle AR

American Spirit Arms released its new non-reciprocating LR-308 Compatible Side Charger upper receivers and the new 308 Carbine at SHOT. The Side Charger is the latest evolution of the AR-15 and AR-10 platforms featuring a non-reciprocating charging handle on the left side of the receiver. This means the shooter no longer has to break cheek weld or take the rifle off the shoulder to manipulate the charging handle.

The new 308 Carbine features a patented non-reciprocating “Side Charge Receiver” and 16” nitride treated barrel, 1:10-inch twist, mid-length gas system, 12 Evolution rail, ASA 4 lb. trigger, Ergo grip, and nitrided bolt carrier group. You don’t have to buy a whole gun to get the benefits of the side charger, either, as the side charge receiver is now compatible with most LR-308 pattern lowers. It will be interesting if this takes off to see how malfunction drills and such with the AR adapt.
