Abstract
A device and method for charging an automatic or semi-automatic firearm, via a unique forward charging handle configuration. The present invention is illustrated and for use on the AR-15 rifle platform, but is equally applicable to various other caliber and configured firearms, with or without gas tubes. The forward charging handle slidably reciprocates about and along the frontal support or hand guard area (also referenced as the fore stock) in a pump action, allowing ejecting of spent, jammed or dud ammo from the chamber area, or initial chambering or charging the firearm while maintaining shooting position. The present invention is particularly suitable for use in competitive shooting, military applications, hunting, etc, allowing the user to charge, chamber, and/or unjam the firearm while maintaining firing posture, without the need for the user's hand leaving the front support.
