If you have frame mounted optics, or even melt-in optics, it makes it more difficult to grab the serrations. Adding a cocking handle like this makes it much easier to rack the slide without having to figure out a way to grab on to the tiny areas of slide left exposed. You'll typically only see cocking handles like this on open division race guns used in IPSC, IDPA or other types of similar practical shooting competitions.
