For what it's worth, I tried the Badger Ordnance Tac Latch on my charging handle. It's great on the range, but if you have to carry your rifle for any period of time, anything protruding towards your body will be annoying / painful. I took it off my hunting Grendel and went back to the standard latch release.

Gents,

BCM makes 3 different size latches on the Gunfighter charge handle. If you're carrying your carbine/rifle in a patrol carry and you're right-handed, then you can use the Medium or Small latch Gunfighter charge handles. The Gunfighter is meant to take a beating from high-volume shooters who rack the action a lot during malfunction clearance drills, and does not have the slot in the back of it like Milspec charge handles, which has been known to break in extreme conditions.

Hmmm, the LMP103T made by LMT when it costs $20-29?

Looks like Grant at G&R Tactical is out of stock currently on the LMT, but I bought one from him for $25, and it's my favorite.

I find the various tac-latches overdone unless you have a huge scope on there and need the extra reach.

My read is the BCM's are good options, especially if you think you need the large handle. But for my needs I prefer the LMT over the small BCM Gunfighter.

BCM Gunfighters are all I use. I have both the Mod 3 and Mod 4 models on my rifles. Like them both. Also, check out the Black Rain Ordnance tac latches. Very smooth and tough.
