TO AVOID THE NEED FOR A DEDICATED FORWARD ASSIST

YOU WOULD WANT EITHER A RECIPROCATING CHARGING HANDLE FIXED TO THE BOLT CARRIER

OR YOU'D WANT THE CHARGING HANDLE TO BE ABLE TO LATCH INTO THE CARRIER TO ACT AS A FORWARD ASSIST IF ITS NON-RECIPROCATING

SAY A FOLDING CHARGING HANDLE

EITHER ON THE SIDE OF THE RECEIVER LIKE AN FAL

OR FORWARD, ON THE HANDGUARD LIKE A G3

AND WHEN YOU PULL ON THE THING AND IT FOLDS OUT -- IT LATCHES INTO THE CARRIER
