My charging handle is way harder to pull back on my colt 6920 with this thing in. Any ideas? It binds up pretty bad.

If the charger isn't extracting the cartridge, which it shouldn't, the bolt head or extractor might be squeezing or snagging on it. You might press the cartridge against the bolt head to verify. If that is the issue, I'd guess there might be chamber size or cartridge size problems. If the bolt is difficult to pull all the way back that's another issue.

I don't know how bad, bad really is Joseph. Notice there is an o-ring in the back of the cartridge. Maybe that's the problem. Perhaps if you took a smidgen of some kind of light oil on it that might help.

Check the Laser LT-223 for correct chamber dimensions. Sounds like the bolt is getting hung up on locking lugs. look for evidence of the bolt dragging on the locking lugs. Which could mean the LT-223 is to long or the LT-223 is not going up in the chamber far enough do to obstructions or chamber size. IF, it is the chamber, the neck and shoulder size is usually the problem on mass production chambers as the reamer gets worn. A headspace gauge may help, but it won't verify shoulder angle or neck size.

I did notice it to be a bit difficult, but since I don't remove my charger often it is not problematic. In fact, it allows my charger to not get disconnected because I pulled my phone or device. This was a continuous problem I experienced with other chargers--they just never stayed put.

When I mounted this on my wifes Bushmaster AR15 carry handle the bottom portion of the mount slid right into the opening of the handle...the only portion that extended to the left and right of the handle was the rail and when the quick target acquisition sight was mounted.....since her charging handle is to the rear I am not sure if this will help you....one draw back we discovered Is the supplied nut failed to keep this rail secured...tried thread seal tape and it didn't help...did not try thread lock...so installed sawtooth lock washer with nylon locknut.....two trips out and so far has held intact.

I read the comments in here and bought it for my 4" 686+. It fits so tight that you can't draw the gun without using another hand to hold it down. I don't know why other 686+ worked, but mine. I returned it.

I had issues after I took apart the gun for cleaning, I had the tip screwed in too tight. Try loosening it and it should work

ThSe problem is, the "pin" that slides inside the barrel of the gun, is set at such an extreme angle, even with two hands, I can't force any of my semi-autos, over the pin. It racks the slide, if you don't push down, on the slide, but there is no way, I can have the it mounted on my belt, then slide the gun on the pin. Even with my Ruger SR38, it takes 2 hands... Then I can't "draw it" without my second hand, holding down my belt. My opinion: "great idea, but the pin angle is too extreme.

I've had no problem with mine. Just had to plug it in and make sure I touch switch is flipped to ON and when you wrap your hand around the handle it should lower. One finger touch won't trigger it. You need to touch where the dots are or on the bottom of the handle. The sides of the handle won't trigger it either. I am literally using mine right now. I use it almost daily for my sewing projects. I just purchased it from Amazon a month ago and have had no issues with it raising and lowering. It's possible you got a faulty product.

I haven't had this problem. I've been using mine for awhile, and all clamps cinch down nice and tight. The only ones that I've found need extra tight cinching, are the two handles as there's more leverage at work there. I actually was suspect that it would work as well as it does as the price was way below rigs from Red Rock Micro and Zacuto. But I've been pleasantly surprised. Something sounds wrong with yours and you may consider exchanging it.

I had the exact same problem! I finally just pulled the handle straight out with pretty strong force and it came out. Good luck.

I have a Colt Commander and that trigger fit in the gun but the width wasn't wide enough it left a gap in the back of the trigger. So I put the stock trigger back on.

If you have to struggle to pull the bolt back and must push the bolt into battery,I think that the mount is too tight. How snug a fit did you make it? If you filed the base of the mount you may have taken too much off. How easily did the bolt move before with the standard cover? I think that this is a good question for Survivor's SKS board ( www.sksboards.com ) on-line blog.

If you have a friend that has a functional grip, try theirs too. This could help in troubleshooting. Good luck!

This product fit my standard DeWalt charger , but it was a little snug around the center divider (the wall that separates the 2 metal contacts)One wouldn't stay down in order to charge due the friction. A little silicone spray solved the friction problem.

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND HAVE A SOLUTION!! Put the nose of the batter in at a DOWNWARDS ANGLE. catching just the front hooks to secure in place. Charger then recognizes it. the problem is the connectors are two short for the battery. if you put the battery in at a angle, works perfectly fine.

I got it off, saw that the battery was fine, then snapped it back on. It really does slide off, toward the connector end, but it takes a lot of force. Wait a few years for the rechargeable battery to wear out, then take it in and let the poor kid at the store get the back off.And getting that lanyard loop to go in and back out of their little attaching hole is also nearly impossible. A needle-threader helps...

I know my Charge TTI is not spring loaded. It's actually a little stiff, but give it time I know it will loosen up.

Mine is pretty stubborn so I assume you have the same problem. The easiest way for me to do it is to hold the unit in one hand and use the thumbnail of my other hand to pull against the two raised bars at the bottom of the battery cover in the direction of the arrows. Give that a try.
