Timber Creek Outdoors AR Forward Assist - Black Hardcoat Anodized for AR-Platform

The Timber Creek Outdoors AR Forward Assist is a direct replacement forward assist for any AR-platform rifle. If you're building a custom AR, upgrading worn controls, or just want a quality component with a finished look, this is the piece that lets you press that round into the chamber with confidence. Finished in black hardcoat anodized aluminum, it matches standard mil-spec AR uppers and delivers the same function you expect—no surprises, no compatibility headaches.

Hardcoat anodizing isn't just cosmetic. It's a harder, more durable finish than standard anodizing, designed to resist scratches and wear from regular handling and use. If you're assembling an AR from scratch or swapping out a damaged forward assist, Timber Creek's version gives you a reliable, long-lasting control without the premium price tag.

Drop it into any standard AR upper receiver, and you're done. No fitting, no modification. Whether you're a precision shooter, a 3-gun competitor, or someone who just prefers quality parts on a rifle you depend on, having a solid forward assist is part of the equation.
