Does anyone have the Magpul MOE carbine length hand guard with the QD sling point?  If so,-- How is it holding up, is the Magpul MOE hand guard rugged and is the sling point option likewise will it take a lot of stress and wear ..... ?  Does the sling point work with other brand QD swivels (Are they all standard)....curious....

Honestly, I think the Magpul Mlok QD attachment is the way to go now (before that, IWC was the go to). Yes, the handguard is plenty sturdy enough for it.

I've been using Magpul MOE handguards exclusively (I'm a cheap bastard and they do everything I need from a handguard) for the past few years and have experienced 0 problems (although cosmetically they've picked up their share of nicks, scratches & dings from classes and such).
Two of my AR's have the IWC sling swivel mount and to date they've also been 100%, working w/several different brands of sling swivels (I've started using Magpul's MSA QD sling swivel mount instead).
Now, I haven't tried supporting my weight on it while hanging off a 20-story roof, but the weak point is actually the sling swivel itself as a cheap one will fail long before the IWC sling swivel mount does (it's pricey, but I use Magpul's QDM swivel, rated at 500lbs).
HTH...

I have their low pro mount on the MOE handguards. Had it of 4 years now and it is solid. MagPul makes their own for the M-Loc now, but I decicied to go with the IWC again on a second rifle.
