Re: Forward Assist on AR-10

I understand frustration from stupid comments like jakhamr81, i just dont know what use it is waving a dick over the internet. So you had blah blah training, and he had yada yada training, who the fuck cares. I just wanted to know how many on this site have actually used their forward assist. I am one of those guys that think the world will regress to a uncivil state very soon, I also like to actually hunt my prey, sometimes I forget if I chambered my round. Usually Ill just rack another one, but out in the woods youll come home empty handed, as one poster said, if you make too much noise. And hey, if our civil nation becomes a civil war front, I would like the assurance knowing I am prepared for shooting my way to safety, or silently running for supplies, or whatever. If a forward assist actually serves its purpose in combat, Ill take it on my civvie gun. Atleast Ill have it if I need it. Its personal preference at this point. </div></div>
Actually I wave my dick all over the net hoping some ladies show interest... might not be the right site for that though- not having a lot of luck!
For hunting, as you described, I could see a legit need for it. But if you get one without, you can just double and triple check that you loaded it.
It is personal preference, but I'd hate to see you buy a lesser firearm to get a feature that isn't really important.
I won't talk about the whole SHTF scenario- we have differing views and that wouldn't be productive
