This forward assist appears standard in size. This piece functions as a place holder in my 300 blackout build. The tooling of this item is smooth and appears well done. Functionality is flawless and installation was a breeze. Only negative I found was that the color of this forward assist differs slightly from the black on my AR upper and lower. Thank you Optics Planet for a bargain price.

I thought this was aluminum... Its steel. The manufacturer did not say anything in regards it being steel. So i took a blind call on it and received it steel. Im making a light weight build and this isnt going to work for me. Its a waste of 13$ atm. Sending it back would cost more than the part itself.

This forward assist assembly fits right in place of the stock forward assist for AR 10 and 15. Made of aluminum and anodized blue. Completely worth the money, would buy this or any other color from XTS products.
