I was reading this article today and it got me thinking. How often have you guys used the forward assist on your AR-15 rifle?
I've never had to use it on my piston driven AR-10. When I was in the Army my M16 jammed up on me numerous times (which we would then have to follow up with the whole SPORTS drill, which involved tapping the forward assist), but even then the forward assist didn't do any good.
