V Seven Weapon Systems
Overview
The V Seven Weapon Systems AR-15 Ultra-Light Forward Assist is a complete assembly designed to enhance the functionality of your AR-15 while keeping weight to a minimum. Crafted from 7075-T6 aluminum, its ultra-light design ensures that it won't add unnecessary bulk to your build, which is especially beneficial for those focused on agility and maneuverability. This forward assist is commonly found in builds featuring a rifle-length gas system and chambered in 5.56 NATO, making it a practical choice for precision and reliability in the field.
Builders have been adding the V Seven Weapon Systems AR-15 Ultra-Light Forward Assist Black to their builds on GunPartPicker since February 2026. All time, it ranks #23 of the 58 forward assists builders have added. Builds with this forward assist are nearly all chambered in 5.56 NATO, split between mid-length (50%) and carbine-length (33%) gas systems, and nearly all AR-15.
Availability is good: it was in stock at one retailer or another nearly every day in August 2026, but today none of the 2 retailers we track has it in stock right now. The best price drifted down from $47.49 to $33.95 over August 2026 without a real sale. Listed prices start at $33.95 at Brownells for when it comes back.

V Seven titanium ultra-light forward assist in black is meaningfully lighter than steel. Wish a spare detent had been included for the price - those small parts fly during install. Function is reliable once installed. Premium FA finish.
V Seven titanium ultra-light forward assist in black makes me happy. Lighter than steel mil-spec FA. Anodize is consistent. Spring tension is correct. Solid weight savings on a serious build. Premium FA upgrade.
