Did not work in BRN-4 build
After running the roll pin through the upper, this forward assist would not move until being pryed from the forward assist bore. It could be pushed back and forth eventually, after really trying to tear it out of the receiver, but never became usable I suspect the track for the roll pin wasn't machined low enough. It was chewed up pretty bad from all the rough handling post-install. Replaced with a different brand, that one works perfectly, so doubts are my receiver was made wrong either. Cheap part, so no tears shed, but still a shame
