The Push Button QD Sling Swivel is used as a secure, noiseless attachment point for slings and can be quickly removed and installed on multiple weapons. It can be installed on any Vickers Sling.
The Blue Force Gear Push Button Sling Swivel is made with the belief to be lighter and stronger than other push-button QD swivels. The reduced size of the swivel body and push-button reduces weight and minimizes the chance of accidental disengagement of the swivel. It has a larger gauge sling loop that offers added strength and durability. A corrosion-resistant matte phosphate finish is used for signature reduction.
Common QD (quick detachable) sockets used on buttstocks, forends, rails, or aftermarket socket adapters can be easily fitted to the Push Button Sling Swivels. Ensure that your weapon comes with a QD socket to properly attach the sling. For railed forends without integral QD sockets, use the Rail Mounted Push Button Swivel Socket.
The RED Swivel is a genuine quick-release sling swivel that you can install and remove by pulling on the emergency release knob. It's not an "emergency release" point to "push then pull" as believed commonly. It requires fine motor skills and can be challenging with gloves or in stressful circumstances.
It is suggested to put a little drop of oil or gun lube down the push button channel each time you wash your weapon to make the operation smoother and protect the internals from corrosion.
For 1" and 1.25" loops, select what you want. The 1" swivels are perfect for any Vickers Sling with 1.25" webbing. It keeps the Swivel more stationary on the sling. The 1.25" swivels can also be used on any Vickers Sling, but it allows more movement of the webbing than the 1" Swivels.
