Why is it KAC doesn't put a forward assist on any of their 308 rifles? Isn't that a draw back? I've been in some harsh conditions with an M16a2 and sometimes the that forward assist comes in handy. </div></div>
Not required nor effective.
The design of the bolt carrier make the geometry awkward, and the spring pressure on the action spring on a 762 gun is vastly different than a 5.56mm gun, as well as the fact the ejector pressure is astronomically different.
We built a number of prototypes to show Government Entities, and at the end of the day, all agreed it was not desired, or required,
