Good item

About Me Gun Collector
Comments about MAGPUL MAG500-AMBI SLING ATTACHMENT POINT:
Easy to install, doesn't get hung up on any of my gear. Holds the rifle a little low down, but otherwise great. It is a little noisy when sling is not attached. Good workmanship on this item.

ASAP Sling Plate
By Fencecop

About Me Law Enforcement/Military
I received the Ambidextrous Sling Attachment Point (ASAP) recently. Before mounting the hardware to my rifle I examined it closely, as we all do with new gear. I have been impressed with all of my MAGPUL products thus far, but I still wanted to give it a once over before mating it to the weapon. The construction of the plate is heavy duty. The link rail is welded to the plate with thick welds and appeared to be able to withstand repeated abuse. The plate has a low profile with rounded edges which is appreciated and will save on wear and tear of other equipment and the operator's hands. The link ring has a beefy weld holding it together on the link rail and move freely from side to side without any catches. When mounting the plate to the gun, it is the same with most replacement plates. A simple armor's spanner wrench is all that is needed to mount the plate. Installation was easy and complete in a short amount of time. The thickness of the plate was not a problem with the retractable stock and allowed for the stock to be placed in the fully collapsed position. One of the more attractive attributes to the ASAP is it will work with most single point slings. It is not designed to be used with only MAGPUL products. The range of motion allows for easy transitions and free flowing movement of the weapon. During the testing we used several different slings and all performed better than those with fixed position sling mounts. The cost of the ASAP is another attractive feature. You get full range of motion and the opportunity of right to left transitions, but with a affordable price. Other plates run anywhere from $19.99 up to well above $55.00. However, they offer the fixed position. Some have right and left positions, but the sling must be detached and reattached to the other side. This is where the ASAP exceeds the rest. After running the ASAP for several months, I would highly recommend its employment to anyone with a AR-15 or that style of carbine.
Perfect for single point sling runners!

180* of movement, allows your weapon to hang centerline, the part is an awsome upgrade.

Easy transitions
By T Cooper
from Flagstaff, AZ
I used this during the AZ POST rifle instructor school with a Safariland sling. It made strong/weak side transitions very easy. It did not hang up moving into various shooting positions. My only concern would be how well the ring holds up, but after one full week of use it did not show any signs of wear.

OK, but noisy
By Trunk Monkey
from Virginia Beach, VA
This ok, but I don't like how the ring slides around. Noisy + feels unsecure since in single point mode the rifle wants to flop over/down as the ring doesn't hold position, if that makes sense. There is another Ambi Sling Connector that Brownell's sells that works better, quieter + still allows the transitions from shoulder to shoulder. It works much better than this one, in my opinion.
Revolutionary Sling Adaptor
By Tremis
from Willaimsport, PA
About Me Competitive Shooter
What separates this from any other ambidextrous sling adapters is its ability to be switched from right to left 'on the fly' without disconnecting the sling from the gun. I've been running it for a few months and I couldn't be happier. The only minor negativity I could think of, is the material is very hard, making staking your castle nut require a bit more work. But for something that's only done once in the life of a rifle, its hardly a negative. Every AR I own sports one of these.
