Overview
Built for secure field carry, these machined steel sling swivels are designed to keep a firearm attached with confidence while moving through the woods or to and from the stand. The locking collar helps immobilize the swivel gate to reduce the chance of accidental opening, and the all-steel construction avoids plastic components. Offered here in the 1" loop diameter with a blue, matte finish, they suit hunters who want a straightforward, durable sling attachment without unnecessary complexity.

- The locking collar adds security, but it also introduces an extra step when attaching or removing the swivel.
- Steel construction and a matte finish are specified, but the product data does not provide details on weight or dimensions beyond loop diameter.
- This version is limited to the 1" loop diameter, so it may not suit every sling or attachment requirement.
