    What is the best side sling mount for my Colt 6721?

    Hey guys,

    I need a side mount but don't want to order the wrong thing, any ideas?

    The 6721 already has a side sling mount which is mounted to the barrel at the FSB. If you want one that attaches to the FF rail the Daniel Defense ones can't be beat.

    Nope, mine only has a bottom mount. No rail.

    Neither of my 6721s had a side sling mount, I'm not sure why they include it on the 6920 and not on the 6721.

    I am a fan of the Knights Q.D. swivel mounts for the gasblock/A-frame and buttstock....that is if you are planning on running a 3-point sling.

    Some good suggestions if you have a rail system in place. If you don't, you can use a M4 style side mount sling swivel or a GGG Sling Thing.

    Thanks Eric and everybody else for the pointers.
