Need to get some end plates that will accommodate a sling in some fashion - QD socket, hook loops, whatever.

Prefer inexpensive since I work in education and need 4 of 'em...

QD in the front either mid way or muzzle end of your rail... in the rear... para cord.

My training buddy is a former SF guy for 15+ and competitive shooter.

He showed me the para cord trick a lot of guys used in his old unit.

Allows free movement for shoulder transitions and never gets bound or kinked when working fast.

Double fisherman’s knot pulls against itself.

Cut a piece of bicycle inner tube and tuck your sling into it tight for storage or moving in/out of vehicles quickly to avoid snagging.

Uh, oh. I have a D.I. end plate on one build and actually have yet to test-fit my Magpul sling with it. Guess I'd better check.

I have a few of these and I like them. I think the company that makes them is out of business and can't find any with qd.
if you don't need qd theses are $10 ea.

That may work, since my sling is simply Solomon bar knot made from paracord.  On rifle w/ factory sling swivels I just loop the cord through itself on each end....

Their QD end plates work with all my Magpul and Blue Force Sling QD Swivels.

Their QD end plates do not have that disclaimer.  It’s is their swivels that do not work with all other QD sockets.  Their swivels have the disclaimer.
