[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Which IWC QD for my Magpul MOE handguard

Posted: 11/20/2014 2:07:29 PM EDT

I think I'm going to use and IWC qd Mount on my MOE handguard for my front sling mount. Can't decide which. It doesn't look like there is any functional difference between the QD rotation limited sling mount and slot and the QD sling mount and slot except that the later seems to make a much larger base. Is there any reason to pick one over the other?

I prefer the micro. Very slick. Easy to install. Just need a drill and 1/2 inch forstner bit.

The one you drill into the handguard is low profile, only sticks out from handguard maybe 1/8" max. I like mine a lot.

I have the regular one that bolts on through the vent slot, works as advertised.

This. And it doesn't require permanent mods to the handguard.

Response to an email to IWC: Get SQDRLF0... Two pieces of hardware, vs four. Rotation Limited vs full rotation.

The thread I created here on installing an IWC mount into a MOE HG is lost to the archive, but here's another version I posted at WE:

[Installing an IWC QD Micro into a MOE handguard

Highly recommended.

If you are looking for a flush fitting mount this is a good one. Installed one in a Magpul MOE hand guard and it works great.

I am running the QD Rotation Limited Sling MOUNT-N-SLOT on mine and love it. In fact, I've had 3 other people at work order one after trying mine.
