    Here's my issued rifle when I was a Squad Leader in the 82nd.



    I had a Soldier during that time frame with a bottom mount sling loop. I remember it vividly because I gave him a Blue Force Gear pic loop to use because of it. I don't have photos of his rifle because that's gay and nobody does that kinda thing.

    Both configurations are issued.


    My original comment pertained to a bottom sling mount.

    Here are pictures of a brand new FN M4A1 about 2 years ago, issued to some cops on Ft Jackson. Left side swivel: https://imgur.com/a/SO4FeDh

    Both types of sling swivel setups have been issued; see claims above made by those that have carried these weapons for a living.

    Your original comment contained the following double negative-

    If it WOULD NOT have a sling swivel under the FSB; your statement would be that a USGI Colt will have a side sling loop.

    If it WOULD NOT NOT have a sling swivel under the FSB; your statement is that all USGI Colts will have an under FSB sling loop.



    Sorry for the confusion; your syntax was too cryptic for my 11B mind to follow.

    There is no factory OEM USGI assembly for a replacement M4A1 barrel with a bottom swivel.

    Until shown otherwise I stand by my point.

    Me, on the right with a side sling loop, next to a very nice Government Gentleman with an under FSB sling loop; circa 2012, colorized.
