During bolt override remedial action, if the charging handle is still stuck after the second attempt, what should be done next?

In the context of bolt override remedial action, if the charging handle remains stuck after multiple attempts to clear it, the appropriate next step involves using a tool to pry it loose. This action is necessary to ensure that you're safely and effectively addressing the issue without causing damage to the firearm or risking personal injury.

Utilizing a tool specifically designed for this purpose allows for greater leverage and control compared to manual attempts. It indicates an understanding of the mechanical aspects at play, demonstrating an approach that prioritizes both safety and functionality.

In situations where the charging handle is stuck, options such as calling for assistance or continuing to strike it forward may lead to further complications, such as damaging the firearm or injuring oneself. Inspecting the entire mechanism is a prudent practice but not the immediate next step if the charging handle is jammed after repeated attempts. Thus, using a tool becomes the most logical and effective approach in this scenario.
