BCL 102 charging handle

[Randomized]

Hey guys, I picked up a BCM charging handle I. 7.62/.308 for my BCL 102 gen 2 and cant seem to get it to fit. The slots in the upper receiver seem to be too small for the new charging handle. Has anyone come across this problem? If so, can you shed some light on it? I can only get the original one to fit. Not sure if this is normal or if this is an issue with QC.

You need to file down the front tab portion in order to get I fit. There are few threads about it if you search it bcl102.

FYI- other brand of buffer tube and trigger guard might require some fitting as well.

yes, this is 'normal'. As ^, file the ears off a little.

I cannibalized mine, but it worked (Last picture)
