With a left-handed operator, those 2 parts face away from your gear / body when holding the gun. For a right-handed shooter, they're just an annoyance.
But yeah, awesome work. Very well done on that build.

also, running a "normal" Ambi charging handle can be pretty useless. The foward assist is right under it, you don't have a whole lot of real estate to grab that thing with your right hand/fingers.
Running an extended latch will solve these problems, I'm currently looking into acquiring a Badger Ordnance ambi charging handle with extended latch and mod it to fit my WE.
check it out here, the video talks about the problem (that's where I got the info from)
