Overview
This sling tail is designed to add a push-button mounting point to an AR buttstock that already has sling slots but lacks a place for a push-button swivel. It uses a one-piece aluminum keeper base and a stamped steel keeper, both sewn into 1" nylon webbing for straightforward installation. The package also includes a rubber o-ring to help reduce noise and an extra catch-lock mechanism. Finished in black oxide and measuring 3 inches, it offers a compact, purpose-built solution for setting up a sling attachment on compatible stocks.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed specifically for stock ARs with sling slots, so it is not a universal sling solution for every buttstock setup.
- The 3-inch length and 1-inch nylon web indicate a compact, purpose-built fit rather than a highly adjustable mounting option.
- Installation is described as easy, but it still depends on the buttstock having the right slot configuration for this style of mount.
- The included rubber o-ring and extra catch-lock mechanism add utility, but they also suggest there are multiple small parts to keep track of during setup.
