As a range toy, if it doesn’t go into battery on its own, I will stop and investigate the issue.

Yep I agree , I'd never just pound away on the forward assist if just plinking at the range . STOP and investigate why it didn't go into battery . Kyle might not be here today had he not looked down and noticed his bolt was not in full battery . We are talking seconds from him firing at Hubert and then Gaige and in between that time he looked down to notice his firearm would not fire the next time he needed to pulled the trigger which was going to be seconds later , . wow . It actually explains why Gaige lunged at him after first holding his hands up . I bet he really thought the gun was jammed and had time to get it or subdue Kyle . So many lessons to learn from that night .
EDIT
I just watched the video of Hubert trying to take the gun . Hubert has his hand on the right side of the receivers . If grabbing hard enough to pull the gun away , That could easily obstruct the ejection of the round fired and cause the BCG to slow and fail to go into full battery .
