Dumb questions fellas but...

Got a swivel stud on the front and a plain loop (for lack of a better term) for the rear sling attachment that came with the stock on my AR...

Like this...

How are you fellas slinging your AR's with this set-up? All the slings I have lying around have 2 swivle stud attachments not compatible with this rear loop I have...

You have the swivel up front, then somehow your slings have the swivel in the rear attached, screw, sewn etc.. you unhitch that one and attach to the fixed swivel.

I generally just use a military nylon 1 inch sling, quite, super strong, and you can slip it in the bottom with its hardware as neeeded.

Otehrs will have different methods.

Still shooting ok?

I use a super sling which has two screws to take it apart. It comes with two swivel attachments so you can leave one on for the front and take the other off and run the sling through the rear loop.

I read the title, and my answer was going to be 30 feet, but never mind.

Thanks fellas...
I was going to take them apart and do this anyway but figured I'd ask and make sure there was not another solution that I was not aware of...

Still shooting fine Jeff...

Foxbat,

I've got a Super Sling II lying around and I haven't inspected it close enough to see how the swivel screws in the rear are fastened. When I get a chance I'll muck with it this week...

Thanks...

Lewis, I can get more than 30 feet from a mag when I'm pizzed... I suspect we could get more than that from the rifle, its BC should be higher than the mag alone... though the starting velocity is not great, it won't fall off quickly like the aluminum mag would?
Thoughts?

Jeff
