I've been wondering for a long time what most felt about the forward assist on the AR. My friend thinks it is a feature that isn't needed, I have nothing against it and see no reason not to have it. I know some think that it is useless for instance S&W makes a cheapo version AR that comes without it. I know the original issue M16 didn't have one either.
I know most will probably never use it but I find it a comfort, a just in case sort of thing. Sort of like the argument on magazines, just because I don't need 30 rounds(or more) right this second I might need them tomorrow. What do you guys think about the forward assist?
