As stated, the charging handle stays forward.. Its only movement is a manual one to load the first round from a closed bolt. Once you are used to it, the placement is quite convenient and allows you to support the gun with your strong hand (pistol grip) and charge the gun with your weak hand for the initial load...Ooooooooooo if you want to treat your AR with a little respect & TLC do it the right way unless your in some kind of shoot out or don't mind spending money to replace the the charging handle. Troops are hard on equipment because Uncle Sam is paying for the parts.
Battery. In some cases, the Paslode's battery won't charge if the battery itself is damaged or has maximized its cycle life. If the battery is damaged, the red indicator light on charger does not flash when you try to charge the battery. If the battery isn't accepting a charge when you mount it on the charger, you must replace it. A new battery doesn't come fully charged, so charge it before inserting it into the Paslode.
