Front Sling Mounting Ideas Needed Please !


Recommended Posts

Bought a Blackthorn 308 upper for my DPMS but it came without front sling mounts. Someone please give me some ideas on how they mounted their front sling. The bottom of the gas block is flat so mounting to it will require  removing to drill and tap. It is a 20" barrel with round plastic hand guards. Thanx !

From the sounds of your description, I'm guessing you have this style handguard;

I suggest two options...

1. Handguard Sling Stud Mount.

2. Barrel Mounted Sling Mount

Another option would be to put a short picatinny rail attachment in the same manners. Then put sling attachments on the picatinny rails... Although that seems like a lot of extra parts.
