Attaching a TAB sling to a Magpul PRS?

StrikeHold · Oct 28, 2009

I am in the process of building an AR10. I have a Magpul PRS for it, and I would like to buy a TAB sling.

The PRS only has slots to run a sling through, not a proper swivel attachment point. I'm wondering if any of you have attached a TAB sling to a PRS. There are a couple of ways I can think to do it, but was looking for anyone with experience one way or another.

Talk to Tony. Tell him what you want. He can take care of you.

Have to order it for a rifle with rear mounts like the SR25, PRS etc...

He has a solution for it, you just have to order it that way. We have used them on rifles with rear mounts like the AR series with no problem.

Whatever sling setup you have we can cover.

If you have the "slot" at the back and a flush cup at the front, we have an app. for that.

If you have a "slot" front and back, we have an app. for that.

If you have a flush cup at the rear and a stud at the front, we have an app. for that.

I haven't found a rifle yet that we can't hang a sling on. I've even made a sling that had me necking down the 1 1/2" webbing to 1" webbing for a Steyr SSG.

That's no problem.

i unscrewed the sling piece on Magpul and slide sling end loop back on, screw back on.

(picture would be easier i guess)

Cool. I guess I'm not looking for that special a thing. Slot in the back, maybe HK hook in front. The front mount will be on a rail, so I can get whatever adapter I want.

Tburkes, sent you a PM.

That's pretty cool, but.....no.

PM is replied to StrikeHold, that will not be a problem at all to do.

Thank you.

Take one of the allen head screws out. Replace it with one of the Uncle Mikes swivel studs that come with the nut on one end (but do not use the nut). They are the same thread.

I just ordered one of the "no buckles" versions and threaded it onto the loop at the back of the PRS. Works great, costs less.

What about something like this?

I have been testing the prototypes for over a year, should have some production versions through anodizing in about a week:

ARctangent - love the design and want to buy a few. Please let me know when the GTG, etc. PM'd you on this.

Thanks,

^^^^^
I'm also interested and you got PM inbound.

ArcTangent,

Does your design capture the flush cup swivel to stop or minimize rotation like the Daniel Defense style cups?

Are you also including the mounting hardware. OR can you tell us what to purchase? Are you going to anno/paint/coat these?

These have been coated Mil Spec (MIL 8625F) Type 3 Class 2 hard coat and have been designed to re-use the original Magpul bolts as supplied with the PRS stock:

They have been through a significant development procress. If you're interested:

Yeah me too. That whole path of least resistance thing.

This looks like a first class upgrade, I like the look of this. PM inbound. Great idea.
