A guide to rifle sling mounts. An essential upgrade for your firearm.

When I was attempting to put on my rifle sling I almost smashed my equipment to pieces. My rifle did not have 2 attachment points, and I did not know what sling mount to go with, what was compatible and what exactly I needed to add to my rifle in order to have a two-point attachment sling. I was angry to say the least! 

To install a 2-point rifle sling on your AR-15, you will need:

  1. A 2-point rifle sling
  2. Sling attachment points or mounting hardware, such as QD (quick detach) swivels or Paraclip connectors
  3. A wrench or pliers (if you are installing mounting hardware that requires tools)

    4. To install the sling:

    1. First, attach the sling attachment points or mounting hardware to the front and rear of the rifle. This will typically involve screwing the hardware into place or attaching it to a rail system.
    2. Next, thread the ends of the sling through the attachment points or hardware.
    3. Adjust the length of the sling to your desired preference, making sure that it is tightened enough to hold the rifle securely but not so tight that it is uncomfortable to wear.
    4. Test the sling by shouldering the rifle and making sure that it is stable and comfortable.

      5. If you are uncertain about how to install the sling or mounting hardware, it is always a good idea to refer to the instructions provided by the manufacturer or to seek guidance from a knowledgeable individual.
