I've had one malfunction on this rifle ever, and it was a couple weeks ago when I didn't seat the magazine fully. Oops.

The forward assist has one legitimate use. Quietly loading the rifle. Other than that, you just make problems worse.

This is "extremely dirty"? Pff, it's got another 2K on it before I worry about cleaning it. Hell, the barrel gets too fouled to hold decent groups way before I "need" to clean the bolt group.

And I can do a LOT better than brake cleaner or a solvent tank..

As far as the rings go, I've only managed to wear one set out in my lifetime, in my last AR. No biggy - wearable item. And they are one of the few parts that do a good job of self-cleaning.

The forward assist was made to shove the bolt into battery in the event the rifle fails to chamber during normal operation. Alot of men died so that little device was invented. Ckeaning kits were also issued for the first time to keep the weapons free of fouling. In a real combat situation, cleanliness means reliability.

Barrel fouling really only affects accuracy. Its important to shoot several rounds through a clean barrel before putting it in the safe. You will most likely not take a shot on a warm barrel when it counts. Fouling helps keep the cold "fliers" from getting away too much.

I use a solvent tank at the race shop. Big enough to drop heads in. Its not heated though, unlike your slow cooker. Lol.
