Sling swivel

Eeyore · April 4th, 2009, 20:11

Can you ladies and gents give me a few suggestions for an M4 sling swivel. I plan to use a single point sling to start. I saw on ebaybanned that they have some for $13 and $50. Some help would be nice.

Where are you planning on plugging in said swivel? Somewhere around the base of the buffer tube, I assume?

Yes sorry, At the base of the buffer tube. Its a G&G GR-16 Carbine.

If it's a new clear gun, I wouldn't do that, especially if you add lots of crap onto to the gun, then sling it for transition to a sidearm while moving.

The clear plastic is brittle, and you'll be holding 80% of the weight of the gun on the receiver extension.

so you would suggest a two point sling then?

Or a 3-point.

Eeyore · April 5th, 2009, 00:11

Ok so any swivels that you would recommend?

Huang has some listed in his thread. But you might need to be age verified to view it.
