Tm22 side charge bolt hold update

This is a less sketchy version, bolt handle itself now prevents the latch from moving down when unwanted, and a ridge added prevents the latch from moving sideway.

Now don't get too excited about the release, because the magazine locks the bolt by the follower as is right now release the bolt will just have it glide over the round in a fresh magazine without feeding it.

Try to find a way for the opposite side of the mag release button to pull the lever down Alex. Some kind of switch and arm functionality

Dang this is a sick design! What are the legalities of printing this? I presume it’s a 3D print. I may be wrong! I want to design a slightly better charging handle for my TM22. Would this be legal?

u/EnggyAlex Alex's Homebrew Feb 03 '26

Completely legal for firearm accessories. Try my ar charging handle

Do you have a kit for the feather! I thought it was only for aluminum chassis.

u/EnggyAlex Alex's Homebrew Feb 03 '26

I do not unfortunately, the mounting hole are different though you can modify a feather to fit, check my previous post. Tommy does produce licensed copy for feather though they are 3d printed resin top rail
