These have been out of stock for some time, but I am interested in acquiring one, or even two if possible, so thought I would list here. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Typical FN charging 250.00 for .25 worth of stuff. I guarantee you can make that out of existing parts out there

I just use this on the front of the rifle for a sling mount. Works perfectly.

Yeah that’s a common Uncle Mike’s QD stud and some washers and stuff.

I use an ITW Mash Hook on the front of my sling and go directly into the receiver hole, to minimize failure points. If you use a nut like that, stake it.

Same factory parts op was looking for at a fraction of the price.

Looks like a scam site. Their prices on everything are crazy low.

I used heat resistant paracord to make a loop.

That's all I did.  It's not like I'm going to war with the thing.

m249 sling kit

You get the front and back mount kit, around $80-85 shipped. No instructions(can find online), loose but wrapped in plastic. The pieces are 100% identical to the ones seen on MGW's site.
