I use ear plugs and ear phones at the same time also.I typically use both ear plugs and earmuffs for rifles and usually for pistols too. Spring noise is not really a bother. I thought maybe something was wrong and other people didn't hear it like I was.

I can't remember the last time I needed to use the forward assist.no forward assist. Don't need one
Nothing against side chargers I have one on my 450 BM but I don't think they're allowed in NRA service rifle that I intended this for.If your upper has a side charging handle. It can be used as a forward assist.
I agree for a gun intended for social work or training, but I'm a fat old guy that's more accustomed to walk and shoot not run and gun lol.The forward assist can be a very controversial topic at times. I would rather have it and not need it versus not having it. And yes I have used the FA a few times both in training and in combat while I was in the Army. One must also remember that if it takes more that just a light tap on the forward assist then you need to take other actions to correct the stoppage.

I stand corrected was checking the rules to see if I could put my Gemtech flash hider on it and apparently to be legal for service rifle it has to have a functional forward assist.Don't need one but it just wouldn't be right.

If you're shooting for grits and shins most match directors will let you shoot anything as long as you can safely.I’d actually been gearing back up to shoot more Service Rifle again, just for grits and shins, but this is kind of a reminder as to why I really don’t want to…

Took it out today. And got it zeroed in. 55 grain bullets no issues. I was dancing a spray paint can around on the 200 yard line. I also ran some of the 62 grain loads too. They worked well too. Im a happy camper. Only thing i noticed the spring in the lower was sounding a little weird. It cycled fine.

In fact, I can't remember if I ever needed to use the forward assist in the Army.
