A2 build question

[calicojack]

So it's been forever and 5 sundays since I've even seen an a2 stock. Because I can't remember my question is this:
Can I put a qd sling reciever plate on an a2 setup?

[titsonritz]

There is no receiver end plate used on rifle stocks.

Yes kind of...

Carbine receiver plates won’t work. You’ll need a special plate (insert) that goes between the receiver and the stock.

Here’s the first google result I found from RRA but I know Midwest Industries makes one too (all the coolness with none of the political baggage).

Edit to add: I reread your post and see you’re looking for QD vs straight sling or HK clip. I haven’t seen one specifically for QD but they may exist. You could also drill/imbed a QD point in the stock which is more permanent or you could replace the rear sling loop with a QD attachment from a specialty company...maybe GG&G or IWC?...that I remember seeing a while back.

I’ll add that in a subsequent post if I can find it.

Here is sling adapter from GG&G, but it is not QD.

Noveske has these.

The last post in this thread shows what it looks like installed.

In that thread they had the cups pictured. That may be the route I go

Tangodown makes this:

kinda funky and expensive but it works. I would swear that years ago I used one on a A1 stock, not sure why they say it won't work on one.

You may want to take a look at this too.

No permanent modification to the stock but it may cause the rifle to hang at an odd orientation.

This is what I was referring to. With an a2 stock I'm not gonna be running nose to charging handle like I would for my shorter/cqb setups; so I dont think the bulk will interfere with much

That looks like a pretty decent solution to what the OP is looking for. I think I'm gonna have to give that try

Could be worth hitting up Blue Force Gear to see if they would make a molded universal wire loop with a cable of the needed length.
