Luth-AR Forward Assist Assembly

The Luth-AR Forward Assist Assembly (Luth-AR part no. UR-08-R) is a replacement forward assist built for standard AR-15 upper receivers. The forward assist lets a shooter manually tap the bolt carrier fully into battery if fouling, a dirty chamber, or a stubborn round keeps it from closing completely under spring pressure alone. Luth-AR machines the assembly to fit factory forward-assist-equipped uppers without modification, making it a straightforward replacement if an original part is lost, damaged, or missing. It is a small but functionally important part for keeping an AR-15 running reliably in the field.
