Aero Precision A2 Detachable Carry Handle For Ar-15

The Aero Precision A2 Detachable Carry Handle for AR-15 puts a proven, classic sight system back on your rifle without drilling, tapping, or permanent modification. If you're running a flat-top receiver and want the reliability and fast target acquisition of iron sights—or a sturdy mounting point for optics—this forged aluminum handle delivers the durability mil-spec shooters have trusted for decades. Whether you're building a retro-styled rifle, setting up a backup sight package, or just want the option to switch between mounted glass and irons, a quality detachable carry handle is a smart investment in versatility.

Built from 7075 T6 aluminum and finished with mil-spec hard coat anodizing, this A2 assembly won't quit under heavy use. The dual apertures give you flexibility in lighting conditions and shooting distance, while windage and elevation adjustments let you zero the handle to your rifle's zero—or dial in a secondary zero if you're running it alongside your primary optic. The detachable design means you can remove it in seconds, stash it in your kit, and run your receiver rail clean if the mission changes.

Aero Precision's reputation for no-nonsense, combat-proven parts is well earned. This carry handle is straightforward, American-made, and built to work. Mount it, adjust it, shoot it—and know it'll perform when you need it to.
