To Operate HABU Mod 1 for 5.56mm/.223. With your dominant hand trigger finger indexed outside of the trigger guard, take your non-dominate hand with your thumb to the rear, in one motion grasp, pull to the rear and release. Rapidly re-engage your target with the solid cheek weld HABU Mod 1 provides.

The HABU was designed by veterans who saw a need for an integral M4/AR15 cheek riser. This was needed to better align the shooters eye with magnified optics with short eye reliefs. The Army and Marine Corps both issue magnified optics to their ground troops. For many years it has been impossible for most shooters to attain a proper sight picture without goose-necking, until now. The HABU solves this issue and will provide the solution that many asked for, yet only Falcon 37 delivered.

Why HABU Mod 1 is a Must Have AR Accessory
By combining the charging handle and cheek rest HABU Mod 1 not only accelerates and improves operation of the AR platform, it looks BAD-ASS like it belongs there! Using Major v.s. minor motor skills for it s operation which is critical for Entry Teams, Military personnel and other high stress environments, the shooter can more effectively grip HABU to get his or her gun back in the fight. HABU Mod 1's gripping surface works just as well under wet, muddy or bloody conditions.
A shooter must have consistent, proper cheek weld on any gun platform they re shooting. The charging handle on the AR platform prevents attachment of most cheek rest devices without stock modifications. Falcon 37 Inc. wanted to create an ergonomic cheek rest device that wouldn t get in the way of a charging handle while keeping the shooters cheek in the proper position using optics. Having proper cheek weld on the gun minimizes the time the shooter spends chasing the red dot or reticle with their eye.

    Just amazing...

    Shipment was swift, way quicker than I expected.

    The HABU is almost equally amazing. I believe not enough AR owners is giving this device a chance. I only wish it came in a grey color, like Disruptive Grey. It does take some getting used to. but it won't take long. This is a true ambidextrous device and it doesn't hurt to have that cheek riser, too.

    HABUtm Mod 1 for 5.56mm/.223

    It works. I think it should be about 1/4 inch longer on the sides. It is still hard to hold and edges are rough. I will use it but for those of us with bad hands, it could be made a little more comfortable. Will have to wear a glove in order to use it with a bad hand.

    Exceeded Expectations

    ..I recently ordered a charging handle from Bravo Company. At checkout I was told processing could take 4 days due to my ordering about 11:00 PM on a Friday night and delivery would be 3-4 days later.. MY charging handle was delivered to my house on Tuesday, 4 days after ordering instead of the 7-8 days I expected.. Yes , I will be ordering from BC again.

    Falcon 37 Charging Handle Review

    I read an article recently on American Parisian written by DTG titled, "Falcon 37 Advanced Engagement Charging Handle", who reviewed this item. Within 5-minutes after finishing the article I had the item in my check out box at BC.

    The feature that hooked me was finally, a place to provide a cheek weld.

    It took me about 10-minutes to install and walk onto my back porch to try - It worked GREAT! A few days after that I gave it a true test. We put through my AR a couple hundred rounds. When 'bench shooting', my groups closed up considerably at 200-meters and greater, Vs. before the Falcon 37. Ahhh, what a nice cheek weld will give ya'.

    One criticism I do have though...I wish it was available in different colors than black. I know, I know, I can grab the rattle can and do it up but. Just whining here.

    Buy it you will like it!

    HABU

    The product is working like a dream. Easy to put on. The only complaint is that-it didn't come in different colors.

    Natural Movement

    I haven't fired my AR with the HABU yet. I will get to the range this week, but the true test will be at a 3 Gun at the end of September. However, using HABU feels more natural than the standard charging handle, especially when I shift to weak-side. In addition, it also works well as a cheek rise. I'm running an AIMPOINT Pro with a Primary Arms 3x magnifier. My eye aligns comfortably with the magnifier/optic using the HABU; not too high or too low. Good product so far!
