I'm planning on getting into a sidecharge AR soon. I have a custom ak with left side charge and I really like it.
Now there are some really cool options in the works from a few different boutique manufacturers. I don't mind reciprocating handles, but in a duress situation shooting from an awkward position it could be painful, so in an AR I want a non reciprocating charging handle, which is a little on the rare end of the availability spectrum. One I've seen being developed charges off the handguard and is non reciprocating, personally that is the one i'm waiting to see develop before I jump into the side charge AR game.
Tagged for interest. Been thinking about a Bca side charging upper and bolt assembly to build a 7.5" pistol
Been thinking about one myself for my yote hunting AR. Would definitely make charging easier when wearing gloves.
This would be my choice if money weren't an issue.

Let’s see if we can feed’em with FAL mags too while we’re at it. Heysoos, keeryste, the stupid runs rampant when it comes to ARs and people loose on the interwebz. Can’t wait for the “my **** won’t run” post in the gunsmithing or other forum.

Need help with that sand in your vag?
Take a look at this as a possibility. It is an add on piece of equipment so you use your standard bolt, etc. The only thing you change out is the charging handle. I have one on a scoped AR and works pretty well.
