chainsaw Posted January 20, 2019 Report Posted January 20, 2019 Are the sling mounts that fit under the castle nut a universal fit between ar15 and 308 ar?I bought a magpul mount that didn't fit.can't seem to find anything that is designated for 308 ar.
blue109 Posted January 20, 2019 Report Posted January 20, 2019 Pics needed. are you talking about the endplate with QD sockets? Should be universal but there are a ton of variations.
Robocop1051 Posted January 20, 2019 Report Posted January 20, 2019 There are sooo many variations of sling mounts. The 308AR isn’t always “plug and play”. Some “fitting” may be required.

Pics of what you have (rifle config), and what you bought -will be invaluable here...
blue109 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Blurry and dark and hard to see what you are talking about. ...it looks like a single socket for a QD sling swivel? is the plate magpul? Or the sling swivel magpul? Does the socket extend forward above the plate? It may not be deep enough to lock the button in. Some lowers have a deep relief at that spot and some dont. Explain why it doesnt fit. Clearance issue? Wont stay locked it? Doesnt fit at all? help us help you man. Edited January 21, 2019 by blue109

jtallen83 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Posted January 21, 2019 3 minutes ago, chainsaw said: yes,just like that That is just a basic end plate, no sling attachment capability.
DNP Posted January 21, 2019 Report Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) But that part is pretty cross compatible, correct? I think that's the real question of I'm interpereting it right. Edited January 21, 2019 by DNP

I think that's the real question of I'm interpereting it right. Completely, between AR15s and .308ARs. 100% the exact same part, with zero differences between them, across those two platforms. Zero differences.

So it wasn't a MagPul part, for sure. With that pic you posted, I don't see any loops on it, either, from that steel body. MagPul DOES make an ASAP Plate, though - it's this: That is definitely NOT what you have, though... not from that pic you posted... Edited January 21, 2019 by 98Z5V

I am betting that is a Matrix receiver you have, they are billet receivers and leave some extra meat on them compared to most, those tabs that hang over the receiver on the Magpul loop end plates won't pass over on the Matrix.
98Z5V Posted January 21, 2019 Report Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) ...^^^^ this. And, the ASAP Plate was made for the AR15-sized lower receiver. If that's your end-goal, you need something like this -click it... https://dsgarms.com/dsg-4201-0029 Edited January 21, 2019 by 98Z5V

You have the Diamondback DB-10. I told you right off the bat that it was Matrix sets, but I was being polite about it.
