AK New Ratchet Charging System

Upper Charging system for Kalashnikov Rifles This item replaces the original gas tube with a new one that contains a new charging handle and slide. The new charging handle protrudes from the left side directly over the forearm of the rifle at the perfect angle to allow for easier and less troublesome charging. With a slight force in the upward direction from the operator the bolt assembly can be locked out of battery and away from the chamber. While utilizing the tension in the recoil spring a slight downward force on the new charging handle can be applied by the operator to release the bolt assembly forward and chamber a round in an instant. The pre existing charging handle on the right side is now unnecessary and can be discarded. All hardware is included. No gun smithing required. MADE IN THE USA. Advantages when compared to original charging system: •Bolt locking system with release •Built from the finest metals •Allows for faster reloading •Easier function f
