Recover Innovations UCH1701 Upper Charging Handle | Glock Compatible

The Recover Innovations UCH1701 is an upper charging handle designed for stock-slide, double-stack Glock pistols. It installs without modifying the pistol and ships with the upper charging handle, a lower-profile GCH17 charging handle, and the hardware and tool needed for installation. For pairing with a slide-mounted micro red dot, consider a compact optic such as a Holosun 507K or similar unit under $1,000 for quick target acquisition and low-profile mounting.

This handle is intended for use during range training and competitive shooting where controlled, repeatable slide manipulation is useful. It provides an alternative charging interface for compatible Glock models and is user-installable in under two minutes with the included hardware.

Compatibility notes provided by the manufacturer list that the UCH fits stock-slide, double-stack Glock pistols in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .357 formats, with exceptions for RTF models and Gen5 Glock 22/23; otherwise Gen1–5 models 17/19/24/26/27/31/32/33/34/35/43/45/48 and Gen1–4 22/23 (except rimfire models) are compatible. Installation does not require permanent modification to the firearm.
