i own a pair of carbon 15s bought just after they first came out and both have fired probaly a 1000 rds. i was concerned about the lack of foward bolt assist but it has not been a problem. these were the very first ones offered to dealers so if there was a problem u would think it would have showed up.
The one I was looking at had a forward bolt assist which really doesn't matter much to me, nice to have but I don't know of anyone that ever uses it. I usually end up pushing it but mostly just cause it's there and I'm always in does it work mode around here.
It didn't seem to be near as smooth as the standard frames but I'm sure it would work fine.

Well, these little ARs won't be good for shooting buffalo like the Colonel's Sharps, but they'll be just fine for social work. As posted in a couple other threads, my S&W Sport has been a great buy (paid $579 + $5.99 shipping at GaG) for such a quality fit & finish in a "no-frills" aluminum lower AR. Did upgrade to a Magpul hand guard.

One caliber firearm I've never nor ever wanted to personally have is .223/5.56. Definitely odd for a gun guy, I know. Just have never gotten over the early M16s

I know what you mean. Had a dandy swell time with M16's many years ago. Wasn't the least bit interested in an AR. Then it happened. Was out at the range and a friend talked me into shooting his. As they say - the rest is history.
