Noob Question #2 – Forward Assist

[Luna]

I just saw that Aero Precision makes uppers with and without forward assist. A little reading seems to indicate that the forward assist really isn’t needed. Most of the pics I see on this sub, however, have the FA. This leads me to think that people that know what they’re doing disagree with the people writing about the feature. So what do y’all think? Is it useful, or does it just add to that classic AR look?
