"stacking swivel"


This. If you asked me if I knew what a Stacking Swivel was I would say yes, but a Stack and Swivel??  Nope.

Reminds me of the old rangemaster out at the public range who would refer to the "Lansing grooves" inside a rifle barrel.

I just assumed he meant stacking swivel.....perhaps my answer was premature.

Maybe "stack and swivel" is like "sit on it and rotate"?  Got something to tell us, OP?  What are your feelings on Janneke?

I always thought it meant " I am going to break your neck"

That was the impression I got when I pissed off dad.

Probably because he used it like, "If you don't knock that shit off, I'm going to grab you by the stacking swivel."

I know what a stacking swivel is, but I assumed the OP was referring to yet another disgusting practice from Urban Dictionary.

Ok, I'm in to find out if it was in fact the op who didn't actually know what he was talking about. I have no idea what "stack and swivel" is, and when i googled it the first hit was a spice rack.

I have used it repeatedly on my 8 year old son. He gets it, everyone else, not so much.

I did find this:

"Stack and Swivel
(US) Originally parts of a military-issue rifle (swivel is still there, the sling is hung on two swivels; the stack was a small protuberance used to hook the rifles together when stacking arms).

Now used to refer to a male soldier's private parts, and always used in the phrase "pick you up by your stack and swivel" to connote that the speaker, usually a DI, metaphorically intends to bodily move you from one place to another.

Example: "Son, if you don't move pronto, I'm gonna pick you up by your stack and swivel and put you in the proper position of attention."

Whoever wrote that should Not write about guns. The proper term is stacking swivel.
