The Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW) Forward Assist Kit for the AR-15 is a complete mil-spec forward assist set (brand part no. FORWARDASSISTKITAR-15). A forward assist lets you press the bolt carrier fully into battery by hand when a round does not seat on its own, and this kit supplies the parts to install or replace one. It includes the plunger, spring and roll pin, so a missing or worn assembly can be rebuilt without piecing together separate parts. The kit follows the mil-spec pattern that standard AR-15 upper receivers are cut for, which makes it a straightforward choice for a new upper build or a repair on an existing rifle.
