Re: AR bolt carrier side charging handle

alexanderarms.com sells an upper with a bolt carrier that runs a handle off the right side. i've used them and they work fine if you don't mind them moving fore and aft while firing.

americanspiritarms.com sells a left side upper that works like a side charging handle essentially. i've used several of them and they too work very well. however, they DO NOT move with the carrier and using your left hand to cycle can be a bit handier...

hope this helps....
