No forward assist on the sportical. How are you going to give the bolt a little push when it's a little dirty out in the field. That's why I didn't purchase one.

You'll notice on the bolt carrier, there's a little portion that's dished out right where it meets the ejection port; this is the original forward assist. Just push it with your thumb and all is good. Of course, if you use the correct ammunition, lubricate the rifle, and never let the bolt down lightly, you're unlikely to ever need to do this.
