Yeah, not in the least bit ridiculously overpriced for a sling adapter...
That said if it ever does come down in price I would definitely grab one.

The MI MCTAR30 is already doing this for me, at lower cost...

Agreed, over priced for sure..... But the savings from the ammo, put a little in the jar when you buy 22 ammo, and use that to buy this later.. I hope that helps.. I did the MOE cap drilled into the back route.. more in line with the weapons lines..

Overpriced ... just like most AR-15-style accessories.
it isn't too far off price wise from the daniel defense one i got stuck with a year ago that i couldn't make fit without destroying the rifle. not saying i'm in a rush over it either. just nice to have another guaranteed to fit option without unpinning the stock.
the phrase "tango down" is referring to your wallet when you purchase their products.

You got any pictures of yours? I finished mine up and I'd like to see someone else's product.
Glad to hear there are some options out there! Any others that you guys know of, or advice for putting together your own?
Just last night I was trying to jury rig my 3 pt with an extra buckles/... Did not work so great...
Would to hear some homemade fixes!

For that price my paracord rigged top sling is working just fine...
That's what I used for mine... couple wraps of paracord around the tube tacked with a little hot glue, knotted a small loop for my Magpul MS 2 sling for single point set-up. I have a Magpul RSA on the top rail to convert to 2 point.

just drill/tap your "buffer tube" and put a swivel on it...it's cheap (under $10), strong and effective.........i have mine done this way and it works great

Just realize you are drilling and tapping plastic, albeit a tough plastic. If I were going to do something like that, I would prefer to bolt through both sides of the tube.

I received a couple of PM's inquiring and asking to post a pic of my "50 cent" paracord single point attachment idea. The knot is a single "constrictor" with the tightening over/under laps on the bottom of the tube. If you know your knots it's very strong and perfect for lashing. By itself it is very tight and does not slip at all on the tube, but I placed just a very small dot of hot glue under it prior to tightening it down to make absolutely sure. I then single knotted both ends together to form the loop, leaving the lengths long for a little character. It works great with my MS2 sling, it's light and cheap, Plus the camo paracord looks good on my "real tree"camo S&W M&P 15-22 
Note: You do lose the first position of your stock adjustment even with this method.

Boxerglocker,
That looks like a perfect cheap and easy setup thanks! I will have to do some reading up on knots though...any good links?
OT, but is that a hydro film camo job or does Smith have that as an option now? Would love to see a full size pic as well as know what type of 2 pt sling you have there? I think I could probably convert my 3 pt to 2 if I wanted tho I dunno

Here is a good one at 1/2 the price of the first one mentioned.
2-MWMCTAR30 - Midwest Industries Ambi QD Rear Sling Mount End Plate for 4-position or 6-position CAR/M4 Stock Black AR15

you can't just put that on a fixed stock rifle in a compliance state without extra work as they are pinned.
the point of the post is that this is a dedicated single point sling mount for use on the 15-22 without removing the stock, and so far its the only one i've seen.
that mount, the shipping, and the cost of having a gunsmith install it could be equivalent or more (i was quoted $50 to drill pin, and replace it. same as stock change), and not easily removable without returning to the gunsmith.

Wow, fixed stocks on a 22? And I thought CA had crappy gun laws.
Well, I guess being the only solution on the market for that situation they can justify that price, but its going to definitely limit it to mainly people in states with pinned stock or people that just don't shop around or HAVE to have something by them. Personally I have never really like the single point sling thing, looks great for that "tacticool" mall-ninja photo, but in real life it would be a pain to deal with if you were trying to move quickly.

Actually, there's an MI one (MCTAR30HD) that'll do the same as the one above - still pricey, but less than the Tango Down:
MIDWEST-INDUSTRIES-AR-15-MCTAR-30HD-SLING-ADAPTER
Don't know how well it goes specifically with the 15-22 as I use the MCTAR30 (non-HD) version, because we can do whatever we want with our butt stocks in the UK
