Palmetto State Armory Mil-Spec Carry Handle

This carry handle is certainly of really good quality, I didn't want to take the bargain of buying cheaper carry handles of questionable quality because they would probably only function as a "cosmetic" appearance but probably have a terrible/clunky sight fixture, so I bought this one and I'm pretty happy with it so far! I slapped it on one of PSA's freedom uppers with an F marked FSB and it's pretty rad.

Has positive adjustments and the finish is good.

Mounted and sighted in just great

It was noticeably better than the import version I had previously. Best price I've seen for mil-spec carry handle.

This item is the perfect add-on for anyone wanting a better sight picture without optics. I switched our a Magpul MBUS rear sight for this Mil--Spec carry handle and now have a superior sight picture. Tough as nails quality at the right price makes this a home run buy with a throwback look. Five Stars.

The carry handle/rear sight is well built.
I understand that this was designed by a government design committee and that is probably why they put the big knobs in the way of running the charging handle. If it has to have the big knobs why not put them on the other side of the carry handle to get them out of the way. Or why not some other way to tighten the clamp. It is not likely that someone would need to remove their rear sight in the middle of whatever was happening.

I took off this carry handle/rear sight and bought a slick side rear sight and have to do without the carry handle.

Mounted the detachable Mil-Spec Carry Handle on a PA-10 mid length 18 inch barreled upper receiver with the A 2 style front sight post. The PA-10 was easily sighted in at 25 yards and then 100 yards using Federal 180 grain soft point bullets. I would highly recommend this style sighting system to anyone looking for a simple, accurate and rugged aperature style sights for their PA-10 or AR-15.

Great price and quality

I'm very satisfied with this product. Shipping was fast and the quality was very nice.... I mounted it on my m16a4 clone. gives it that cool look. Fit and finish are great. Holds zero after rapid fire. mil-spec a plus.

Great item. Great quality. Repeatable settings. I got mine on sale with free shipping. Win Win!

Initially I was uncertain what I would receive when I ordered this item. I'd gotten several in the past, from different vendors, that were of poor quality. this time I got exactly what I wanted. Fit, finish, and sight were exceptional. Very happy with this purchase.

The real deal at a decent price - thanks!

2nd Purchase, arrived on time, great shape. Excellent sight, much better than folding for sure! IF YOUR GONNA USE IRON SIGHTS, USE THIS ONE!

More expensive than others, but you get what you pay for

Excellent quality, dependable rear sight. If you want the clssic look, this the rear sight. No batteries needed.

I'm a gun snob so I've avoided PSA for years, but finally gave in to some of the daily deals. This thing is exactly what you'd expect of a quality part. Adjustments feel solid, fits the rail fine, and finish looks pretty good. Got it for 69.99 shipped, can't beat it for the price.

Haven't installed it yet, but I can tell it is a solid piece. Nothing about it feels flimsy or cheap. Detents are solid and the sight feels robust. Now, I need to build something to put it on.

Mounted on my PSA AR and it looks and functions great

Good Quality, US forged. Good detents. A great A2 Carry handle/iron sight

Thumbs up, awesome price

Solid carry handle fits complete m4 upper from psa great.

Good deal on this carry handle. Top quality to rely on. Works great for my application.

I received September 5th, 2018. Upon opening, I noticed the finish from the rear sight mechanism is slightly different from the rest of the handle, which could be from the oil, so no points off taken for that, we’ll see about the finish in a few weeks. What bothered me is the flat head screw that holds the rear sight (holds the sight to move left or right) is scuffed like it had trouble going in. The flat head groove is marked like when you tighten a flat head screw too much and then it slips and you mess up the head. This is unacceptable at the price point, I expect high quality materials even for the screw. Hopefully PSA can send me a high quality flat head screw to replace. Thats why I’m rating it 3 stars for the screw as I believe all parts should be top quality. If the screw is replaced i woul give it 5 stars.

I really like it. The sights are right on. I have no problem hitting my target every time

Mil spec and was almost spot on before sight adjustment.

If your looking for a traditional detachable carry handle this is the one. I’ve used these several times to complete builds. High quality product.

P.A's "Carry Handle W/Rear Sight" was at an Awsome Price, Best that I could find!! It's a Secure, Fits Tight & has V.Good Elev.& Wind. Knobs that are Crisp. Rear Sight Is great, Great Groupings @ 100 Yrds. V.Pleased W/It..!!

Best price I've found for a mil-spec 7075 detachable carry handle. Has square Brass and Aluminum forge mark. Positive windage and elevation clicks. Happy camper.

I was a small arms technician in the USMC and I can tell you the carry handle I recently received has no discernable differences in form and/or function. This is the best bang for your buck milspec carry handle available to civilians.

Best deal on a Mil Spec carry handle anywhere. Unless you want some cheap Chinese one. Which wouldn't be Mil Spec so...

The adjustment knobs that loosen the handle were all out of wack. One knob went out farther than the other, forcing me to put a vice on it and finally force it onto my AR. It looks nice, feels nice, but I feel like I got the bad one of the batch.

Good carry handle for the money. Very precise clicks on the adjustment knobs. Secures tightly to the rail on my upper receiver. I actuallly use the adjustable elevation quite frequently because I have a 22lr conversion kit and have memorized how many clicks to adjust for my particular ammo.

Fit perfectly, looks great, performs excellent. Really rounded out the look of my A2 style AR15.

Have no complaints !! good to go i recommend

Fit and finish was spot on......

Solid and excellently manufactured. Peep sight is very snappy and has a very comfortable sight picture.

Great. Looks good. Looks and feels the same as other mil spec handles I've used, at a great price. Clicks aren't mushy but very tactile. I love irons, and i love peep sights.

Received it fast. Fit and finish is great.

Exactly like my original Colt Handle.

I used this for an 80's retro A-2 build

Quality is good but the price is a little high. I have purchased another one for 20.00 cheaper and seems to be as good of Quality.

The M4 Carry Handle is top of the line , quality is excellent,
. The rear sight fits tight like it is suppose too. There is no wobble in this rear sight like you find in the cheap Carry Handles. This Carry Handle is of the quality of a Colt without the expense of a Colt. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a quality Carry Handle that doesn’t break the bank. Palmetto State Armory shipped Fast.

Looks great and fits perfect on New PSA upper! Can’t wait to get it to range to try it out.

I have bought two of these so far they works flawlessly. One sits on a 16'' upper receiver the other sits on an 10.5'' upper receiver. This is a perfect addition to any M16 A3 or A4 clone build. This has nothing to do with the review, but I wish palmetto state armory would start making complete fixed carry handle A2 upper receivers in 14.5 carbine length and 20'' rifle lenth.

Manufacture, fit, and finish are very good. Use it on my AR pistol.

Great quality. Attaches tight, elevation and windage adjustments are tight. Great product!

Exactly what you’d expect. Good price and well made.

Well made and works well. It was easy to zero and works as it should!

Went out to range, no problem zeroing or adjusting sights.

I love the carry handle, finish is a little rough and looks pitted in some areas. It's also a very very flat finish compared to my AR. Not a big deal - but I have seen nicer products marked as blemished.
