[ARCHIVED THREAD] - sling adaptors for RRA lower

Posted: 10/29/2009 8:47:00 AM EDT

Whats a good sling adaptor to go with the RRA pistol lower they dont use a castle nut to attach there buffer anyone have a slip over adaptor so I dont have to break loose the loctite buufer tube

I'm kinda looking too...in the same boat! I like the RRA pistol lower but they use red loctite on the buffer tube and that does not sound like fun removing.

Standard car end plate with sling slots or hook holes with the little tit removed. I prefer the ambi with holes on both sides for H&k type hooks because I shoot left handed. Cost is about $20. This is what RRA told me several ago when I order a pistol tube

Most slide on sling adaptors likely won't work well as the RRA tube is thicker than a std reciever extension. I was under the impression RRA use's blue locktite on this part, man up brake it free and do it right.

NO...it's red loctite and it has nothing to do with "manning up"!

But I do see some new products coming on the market in the near future for these...I'm sure some entrepreneur will come up with something.

Loctite breaks down at 400 degrees. Just put a heat gun on it and strap wrench it off. It's a good excuse to buy a cheap heat gun and strap wrench.

Yep, its called doing it right even though it may suck taking it apart

Or doing it half assed as you are going to have issues with just about anything that slips over, cause there just isn't any place for a slip over to lock down upon. Just my 2 cents that you got for free.

You could throw it in the kitchen oven for a few minutes too. Just pull any plastic off of it.
