Just got this in the mail today, got it on eBay for $13 with free shipping. It looks similar to ones that Midwest Industries sells. Feels very lightweight as if its made from aluminum. Fits very snug and sturdy. I'll post a couple pics later today when I get a chance. This may be the best option for the 15-22 if you're tired of using zip ties like me :D

After fitting it, I noticed that there is a minimal amount of travel at the top of the "buffer tube", opposite of where it clamps. This was expected given the design of both the "buffer tube" and adapter, but the amount of travel is probably only 1mm. I don't believe this would slide off, and if you keep your stock collapsed it definitely wouldn't be an issue. It is a rather snug fit, and seems like this is a good buy. Certainly don't want to drop $75 for one that other companies make for serious AR-15s. Definitely recommend this one. On to the pics.

"Sounds" like it's made out of a reasonable grade of aluminum. We'll have to just wait and see. I just odered two of them. Be nice if they work on the FS AR's. If not,the 15-22 get them.
 
I just received mine and installed it, fits great, no play at all after I tightened it up. Again great find!
 
I ordered these as well, just got them and they are awesome, fit great, looks good with the single point sling, can't go here for sure :)
 
I use the MCTAR-30. Its similar to the stated one but i like the connection type better... Installation couldnt be easier..
:D

Looks like a good option but I have a MOE version with single point built into the receiver both sides, so I don't need it but for others a good option for single point.
 
It looks just like the one I bought from Amazon recently

Amazon.com: Ultimate Arms Gear AR15 AR-15 M4 M16 .223 5.56 Rifle Shotgun Ambidextrous Stock Buffer Tube Single Point Sling End Plate Adapter: Sports & Outdoors

but paid a few dollars more. So far it seems to do the job it was intended for. Free shipping on yours so all around looks like a good deal.

Ha, I was looking at that exact one and almost pulled the trigger, then I thought 'why not check eBay first'. :)
 
Thanks just used the search & found this thread. Just order mines will be here Jan 8 to 12.

This is my 3 kings day gift.
In Puerto Rico they celebrate 3 Kings day, the day the 3 wise men gave gift to baby Jesus. Since I was a little kid my mom gave us small gift for this occasion, teaching it to my little ones also. Put grass & water under the bed for the wise men camels. Lol.

Got mine last Friday. Fast shipping and fit's great. Feels heavy enough for FS Ar.
