The SilencerCo GDCH (Gas Defeating Charging Handle) aims to reduce gas blowback to the shooter's face, particularly when running suppressed on AR-15 platforms. Testing indicates it significantly mitigates gas to the face, even with a short-barreled, suppressed 7.62x39 AR, though some smell and side-venting gas may still be present. The design features a rubber seal at the rear to improve its gas-blocking capability compared to standard and other aftermarket charging handles.
This review covers the CGS Group Helios QD 556 suppressor, highlighting its design origins for machine guns like the FN M249 SAW. The presenter emphasizes its robust Inconel 718 construction, 3D printing process, and suitability for high-stress, full-auto fire. Key features discussed include its larger bore diameter for baffle strike mitigation on short-barreled 5.56 platforms, included direct thread inserts with built-in flash hiders, and interchangeable sealed/vented end caps. The review also touches on considerations like weight, length, and the adapter system for QD mounts.
