QD Sling sockets.

[onetwentyish]

So a few days ago I was looking at Magpuls sling (http://store.magpul.com/product/MAG333/188)
and was curious if you could mount 2 together for a sling socket on either side?

Here is a diagram of what I mean:

]-|-[

] or [ = qd socket left and/or right
- = the screw/hardware holding it together
| = rifle

Hope you guys can help me figure out how to mount it together like that.

Cheers!

I believe this is what you are looking for: http://store.magpul.com/product/MAG332/188 ?!

Hmm. Maybe! Now to find some of those in Canada.

I did a write up on adding a qd socket to my tavor not long ago, sounds about what your looking for.

With the same machine screw I used, you could easily add 2 as the head fits inside the magpul socket.

Yes can be done.

CTCS carries them

As far as I know he needs the Type 2 kit, which you don"t have - I would have ordered one a month ago when i ordered my Vickers RED 221 sling.

The type 2 has threads built into the cup whereas the type 1 and type 3 have unthreaded holes for a machine screw to pass through. Unless you know something I don't know about these?

The best sling option I have seen is Gear Head Works flex swivel. Replaces the factory ejection port cover with one that has a QD attachment on it. Low profile and correct location for a single point sling.

Got a FLEx, but I am working on a project.

Yes the Type 2 kit is I believe what I require. I have a type 1 already.

I really hope your going to say you have the type 2 kits, because if I order from CTCS I will end up purchasing a Forward Set Sear kit for my M&P9 as well... I would much rather have a reason to order through you and get a Team Canada hat if you still have those...

Yea I seen that, there has been a number of guys use the remington 870 kit as well.

But I dont like having the QD cups on the outside where they are uncomfortable and easy to damage. And I really like the looks of the US Tavor SAR's inset QD cups.

It would have been so nice if the Canadian Tavor had the US Tavor's QD cups... I wish they standardized this for the North American market.
