Forward Controlls "The Man"

[BLKSHEEP]

For those of you non Facebook users here's a couple of items that Forward Controls is working on.... These are prototypes.

 

Forward Controls Design with Dustin Humbert

January 22 · Edited ·

Shown publicly for the first time at 2015 SHOT is the LDFA in Ti. Designed specifically for AR shooters with ambi charging handles, the LDFA follows the evolution of life forms on planet. Things that get used frequently and are useful become more prominent, things that don't, become smaller or go away. I don't want the forward assist to go away, only smaller (since I don't use it often), and for it to not catch on my finger nail when I pull on the right latch of the charging handle with my right index finger.

The LDFA is a rimless design with reduced footprint that does not snag on webbing, and more importantly, the user's finger smile emoticon

Available soon in 4340 steel and parkerized, unfinished Ti, and DLC coated Ti.

That tool came highly recommended to me so I made sure to order it along with the roll pin punch set from Brownells.
