Product description
The Strike Industries Lightweight Forward Assist is a forward assist designed for manual bolt carrier engagement on AR-platform rifles. The Strike Industries Lightweight Forward Assist uses an aluminum plunger and a steel pawl to provide a balance of reduced weight and consistent mechanical contact.
