Mfr. No.: LDFA
682318760366 Specifically designed and purpose built for AR-15s and M16s with ambidextrous charging handles, the LDFA is a snag-free, rimless forward assist with a small footprint. The LDFA design is partially based on natural selection and mutation. As the AR and its manual of arms evolve, so should its controls. The often-neglected FA evolved into the LDFA by becoming smaller, and rimless to accommodate ambidextrous charging handles. The LDFA does not have a rim on the plunger and is smaller than a standard forward assist. More importantly, on an AR-15 or M16 equipped with an ambidextrous charging handle, when the user pulls on the right latch to load or reload the weapon, the rimless design allows for fluid rearward movement of his hand and charging handle, without snagging on his fingernail or knuckle. The smaller footprint of the plunger face does not impact its usability. CNC Billet construction, LDFA is machined from 4130 steel bar stock, heat treated with black nitride finish. it has the classic circular serration on its plunger cap. Proudly designed and made in the USA.

The smaller footprint of the plunger face does not impact usability, making it a practical choice for shooters. Crafted using CNC Billet construction, the LDFA is machined from 4130 steel bar stock, heat treated, and finished with a black nitride coating. It also features classic circular serrations on its plunger cap.
