Front QD Sling Mount Options For M2

[1911 S.I.S.sy]

OK as the title says but there is one snag. I don't want to run a barrel clamp due to slug impact change. Been thinking of installing a QD mount from Noveske in the front of or back of the fore grip. Anybody done this or other ideas?

Ok. My bad. Mods please delete or move to shotgun forum.

GG&G makes one that goes between the factory tube and the nut for your extension. TK Martindill also knows someone who is making them, but I can't remember the name.

You can find a place in the bottom or side of the handguard to drill a hole for the Noveske QD attachment. The flat just in front of the loading port is a good location.

Cool thanks guys. I'll make it happen.

Zip-tie through slot in rib and around mag-tube. UM sling swivel will clamp around it. Set one up for a new shooter at TFD match that way last week and it worked like a charm.

It took me a minute to visualize what you describe but that would be a slick field-expidient sling mount. And a lot better than some of the 550 cord crap I saw. And adds another reason I carry zip-ties in my range bag!

Wow, they are awfully proud of these, $60 for f/r and $30 is for just the front. Makes the zip tie idea even more appealing, especially if it will only be used once in awhile.

I have one on my M2 and love it so far. I have the Noveske rear sling mount in my buttstock. $30 for the front mount is comparatively cheap considering its metal compared to the $25 matchsaverz I have on the forearm that is a piece of plastic!

An added bonus i recently discovered when practicing for the Nordic/Gateway shotgun match coming up.....when shooting slugs and a wall type barricade is available, the GG&G mount on the left side is like a barricade stop! Not always useful for that, better never hurts to add an option when it isn't removing another function.
