    I copied a design from off another rifle forum and made my own.
    Make your own TAC SLING for 10 bucks! Pics and detailed instructions inside 56k warning - AR15.COM

    Worked out well. Got all the buckles and webbing from Twin Needle here in CHCH and put it all together. I didn't use Alice clips like they did though, I used std Uncle Mike sling swivels.
    I bought a Magpul MS4 sling as well, but I prefer my DIY sling.

    The same old leather sling that I use on all my rifles, never felt the need for a tactical style sling but I do use a target sling in comps

    Stupid things not to do with an AR15.



    1) So I wanted to do a functional test on the sh**ty brownells mags to see if they would feed as I chopped off 1/2 a coil of the spring at a time. Decided not to trust just the safety but to remove the firing pin so it was impossible to go off. Bad, bad idea, cam pin turned and jammed BCG at the 1/2 way mark, couldnt part receivers to get it out either.



    2) Had to strip out stock and buffer tube and the f***ing wee pin head that holds the buffer in went Piiiiiing, f***ing lost it. So thank good I had a CMMG lower build kit so I could put it all back together, except I almost lost than one as well, but got lucky it hit me first.



    The AIL stocks are a bit of a bugger to put on btw.



    So that's Xmas done Ive had enough, I'll go play WoT for the rest of the day, way safer.........LOL.

    Did you try to pop the pivot and take down pin together? It just slides off.
