Forward QD sling attachment for KAC RAS?

[Rogue556]

I agree with those that mentioned the IWC QD mount.

The mount sits at a 45 degree angle, which I personally prefer. It's light weight for how sturdy it is. It also uses two socket head cap screws instead of just one like many of the other QD sling mounts use. The area of the mount that clamps to the rail dovetail seems to be wider than most so it really clamps down tight, which is nice if you like to load your sling without the worry of things coming loose.

I have them on three different rifles so far, and all have been good to go.

As previously mentioned, the Gear Sector is probably a good option as well.

I've used this one from IWC for years with great success.

I've haven't tried the Thorntail version in your link, how does it differ from the original one or is it?

Thank you for the advice. Looks like there's some good options I didn't know about.

i asked about horntail mount - got this reply:

Functionally Identical. As the pics show, HSP's has the laser logo, the other our IWC logo cnc engraved.

colt had similar- decided against because of possible lateral pressure on the sight from the sling

You could potential he impart the same amount of force using a non-free floated quad rail

it may spread force over a larger area on the rail but people smarter than me would be able to confirm or not - i use free float rail anyway
