Does The Troy OEM M4 BattleSling Mount Have Anti Rotational Sockets?

I am about to order one from Aim but I want to know if it is anti rotational or not. If not I might just get the IKH SLAP Plate instead.

ETA: NM. I just read that the swivel sockets on the Troy get in the way of the castle nut wrench when tightening down the castle nut. I will get the slap plate instead.

I picked one up from AIM a month or two back, it does have anti-rotation sockets.

And I don't know where this thing about wrench compatibility came from, I've seen it mentioned a few places. I had no issues installing mine; I simply used an old-fashioned castle nut wrench.

I like it much more than I thought I would!

I read the same thing about the ASAP but had no trouble wiyh the castle nut.

Anyway, I've found the Noveske end plate to work better for me. It's anti-rotational too.

I think the Viking tactics LUSA does. Though its not meant to be mounted like that, its for the rail. Not bad though.
