    Foxtrot Mike makes, or used to make side chargers. Bear Creek, as noted. And there was somebody else I saw fairly recently that makes them. If I can find them again, I'll try to remember to post it here.

    Just saying, the MP5 has the best side charging handle of all time.

    Just watched a video from Iraqveteran8888 on the EXTAR EP9

    He gave it a thumbs up ... it was an 8 out of 10

    IV8888 will give anything a positive review for enough money, his price sheet got leaked a few years ago.


    Not saying the extar is bad, but I'd check what others are saying first.

    Smith Tactics make a drop-in side charge handle for any small frame AR.
    I use them on my small frame builds.
    They fold flat when not in use, and can be transferred to other weapons.

    CZ's got a $100 rebate on the all the Scorpion 3+ models (MIcro, Pistol, and Carbine). Some versions can be had for just under $600 (check gundeals) ****if, in stock****. If I didn't already have a couple, I'd be stocking up.

    I have a cz scorpion micro. I like it. No issues. Plenty of aftermarket support. Mags are cheap. Runs everything.
