Geisseles Super CH in DDC anodize pulls smoothly with a positive latch click. The latch face has scratched more than I expected from light range use, finish wears faster than the body.
Geissele Super Charging Handle in DDC has been the best CH I've owned. Pull is smooth from the very first use, no break-in needed. Latch detent is positive. DDC anodize matches Geissele's other parts. Worth the premium price.
