purpose made 15-22 single point adapter. it's about time!

[CPTBeaker]

Actually, there's an MI one (MCTAR30HD) that'll do the same as the one above - still pricey, but less than the Tango Down:

That one won't work on a 15-22. You need this one to clear the 'lug' that runs the length of the 'buffer tube':

Just installed this one on mine. Picked it up at my local dealer for $29.00. Installed in 60 seconds.

Yes - that's the one that I actually use. As said I couldn't vouch for the HD version as I haven't personally used it. Thanks for clarifying things for fixed stock owners - looks like the Tango Down is the off the shelf solution then...

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

The knot for the sling point I used is a “constrictor” lashing knot and can be found here: Constrictor Knot - How to tie a Constrictor Knot it is working really well with the Magpul MS2 sling. I have a Magpul RSA on the top rail for 2 point conversion but am thinking of just doing the same loop set-up on the rail and using the RSA elsewhere or selling it to raise more funds for 22LR ammo or reloading supplies.
The dipped real tree camo is stock from S&W. I bought the rifle last year at a LGS. Honestly don’t know if they are still offering it anymore. Well guess they do: Product: Model M&P15-22 - .22 Long Rifle, Realtree® APG HD® Camo
I like it and it really stands out on the rack with the sea of 15-22 MOE’s and conversions at the local . 22LR rifle matches. I try not to expense too much into this rifle it tends to get the hand me downs from my others that didn’t work out too well to my liking. I had thought of the MI loop adapter but the thing I don’t like about it is it is either one side or the other and does not work as well as the Magpul ASAP for transitions. The paracord mimics the ASAP.
I’m in the process of getting ready to Krylon rattle can paint the front and rear MBUS FDE and Foliage green. It currently sports a Vortex Strikefire RD but that will probably be replaced with a an PA Micro dot that I will also paint.

I don’t have a current pic, but here it is when new…

I got a KZ 3QD Agency Sling Mount for $20 and cut it to make it work the middle hole can not be used with out modifying the push pin sling ring or the gun. I don't see myself using that hole so no need to modify anything to make it useable.I could of made my own but damn it would of took longer then it was worth when I can get one for $20.

 

[TheBest]

It looks like this would work without modification since it has the deep "buffer tube" cut out.

KZ Loop End Plate Sling Adapter

 

[Jeremy126]

It should I like the push pin release is the reason I went with that, and if poeple in the states where they have pinned stocks need a cheap option their it is but they will need to know someone that can mill it for them.

Wicked Easy Mod



Take a look at the MOE version.

I bought a set of Uncle Mike's push button swivels. Something like 12.00.

CAREFULLY measured and lined up the rifle and drill size needed.

Locked it down in a drill press to keep everything straight and in line. Then drilled straight through.

Use some kind of super duper 2 piece glue and set the Uncle Mikes' bases in. Let them set. Came out hard as a rock, looks factory.

I used both sides because I'm a lefty my son's a Right.

Came out wicked tough and cool looking.

Hope this helps.

Regards.

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

That's the same one I have on my 15-22 and it works great and its not $78

Guy's just a heads up on that Amazon Add for 28.66 I just ordered one and the shipping is almost half the cost of the product, I complained and LG Outdoors said I can return it for a 15% restock fee! These guys are a rip off so be cautious if you want to buy anything from them they will jam you with a 15% restock fee. This item weighs about 6 ounces and they could have shipped US Mail for 1/3rd the price.

not sure if anyone else noticed this yet. its a bit pricy but...

TangoDown

awesome for those of us with fixed stocks.

What happened to this product?

 

[Rundover]

Fixed stocks, seriously? As I was reading the posts it took me a few seconds to understand what was the problem. I have the MOE model and because of this I have forgotten that other models don't have the built in sling point. Then I find out some of you have fixed stocks. Is there a reason why you have to have fixed stocks? Do shorter stocks kill people or something? What states have this abuserd law?

It's not the shorter stock, it's the adjustable stock.

Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and a couple of others. It's called the Assault Weapons Ban and you can thank a democrat - Bill Clinton - for it. Several democrat-controlled states made it state law when the federal law expired. And Obama has already publicly stated during the last debate that he intends to see the federal ban re-instated.

 

[DelFuego]

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.

Here we go again, changing the name of stuff on our rifles. I thought we settled on the fact that our rifles were made out of polymer.

 

[DelFuego]

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

Post a picture, please. I always have to add please.

The M&p15-22 is made from High Strength/heat resistant polymer.

That's what Dictators, Communists and Nazis do, that is the only way they can stay in power....is to rob it's citizens of their ability to 'just say NO', and have a means to ensure government can't say 'YES' without the approval of it's citizens.

I stand corrected: POLYMER!!!!!

Polymer, by any other name ...

I vote for plastic, it's easier to type than High Strength/heat resistant polymer.

Sounds like a ban on Liberals buying guns is a better idea. Their the ones going nuts and shooting people so they should not be allowed to own any firearm.
