The OEM charging handle is about 1/4" diameter. This one comes in 1/2" or 3/4" — noticeably faster to find and rack, whether you're on the clock or fighting cold hands.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Whether you're running the M4 in competition, training, or as a duty gun, the charging handle is one of the most-used controls on the shotgun — and the factory part is undersized for how often you'll touch it. This upgrade drops straight into the OEM bolt carrier with a simple twist-out, twist-in install.
Titanium keeps the swap essentially weight-neutral (the ½" titanium handle weighs less than OEM), while steel trades a bit of weight for maximum toughness. Either way, you get a handle that's easier to find and faster to run.
FULL SPECIFICATIONS & INSTALLATION
Weights by configuration: ½" Titanium 0.34 oz (9.6g) · ¾" Titanium 0.46 oz (13.2g) · ½" Steel 0.58 oz (16.4g) · ¾" Steel 0.84 oz (23.7g) · OEM handle for reference: ~0.41 oz (12g).
Diameter options: ½" (≈1.27cm) and ¾" (≈1.90cm), both well above the OEM's ~⅓".
Finish options: Titanium in Black or H2O Cerakote; Steel in Black finish or NP3® (matches H2O).
Note: the 3-notch design resists unwanted spinning under normal use but, like the OEM handle, can still rotate under enough deliberate twisting force.
Installation: unload and safety the firearm, twist/pull the OEM handle free per your manual, then twist in the replacement — no tools or modification required.
COMPATIBILITY

Very effective and reliable charging handle. Fit perfectly with my TAC 12 by Sulan Arms.

Suped up the M4
Awesome upgrades for the Benelli M4 very happy with my purchase. It nice to be able to load the magazine tube with what the shotgun was designed for and it looks great compared to the 5 round tube with baffled extension. 3/4 charging handle might get downsized with the 1/2 inch diameter, but going to shoit it sine before I decide to change it out.

Excellent M4 Upgrades
Shell had everything I needed -- for my titanium model which is harder to find. Magazine tube charging handle and fore-grip were priced well. Shipped very fast and was packed well. Highly recommend Shell Tactical when you need resources for your Benelli. Thank you much -- will be working with you in the future again I'm sure.
