    um....


    Take the spring, put it in the hole on the oposite side, (where the hole is) Put the button in, and I presume, simply slide the pin into place. Complete...

    surely theres a pin included? One (I think) goes in the end of the forward assist, when its through the spring, then the other keeps the spring inside?

    Honestly I dont know how it works on your specific reciver. Have a look for holes of various sizes in the forward assist, and the reciver above where the thing sits...

    judging by that, one pin stops the thing sliding out, the other keeps the spring in... experiment time!

    The one you pictured is a GBB... I presumed wrongly. Well, if it doesnt matter to you, glue it then. If not, have a fiddle and see if you can work it out.

    It is'nt. If you have whats in the top pic slide the spring over the narrow end of the forward assist-turn the upper rec over(you wont see any mark left after tapping securing pin into place) and push the button into place with the flat on the assist button turned toward the hole and tap the large pin in the picture through with a small hammer and punch-this pin holds all in place.:)

    too small to fit around the thin end? Check if theres a hole inside the forward assist for the spring to go into.

    The parts will all fit together, it just depends how. Can you get me a photo of your reciver, and the parts supplied with it?

    Ok, best guess is this....

    Put the spring in the reciver, there should be a recess inside the hole it fits into.
    Next, put the forward assist button in, with its smooth flat side, facing the same side, that the long pin hole is. (This looks to be so the 'channel' in the forward assist is facing INWARDS towards the reciver.)
    Basically, the pin hole is off centre from your forward assist slot. Depending on what side that is, put the flat side of the thinner part of the assist on that side, and push in half way.
    Now insert the long pin, this should retain the forward assist.

    then I presume the small bit is an allen bolt. Put that allen bolt into the side hole, and thread it in, trapping the pin, that traps the forward assist. :)
    hope this helps.
    That should do it.
