Have an AR with an aftermarket hand guard. The PIC rail is on top, not sides or bottom. I need a sling mount on the front.
The barrel has a two hole lug on the bottom that looks like a good candidate for mounting. The holes are 7/16" center to center.

Anyone know of a swivel/mount that would attach to this?7287872878
Or something that would attach to the handguard on the bottom?

Is that your gas block?

Yeah, that looks like the set screws for your gas block. You’ll probably want to find a sling attachment that secures to the slots on the handguard.

Didn't know what to call it. Now I know.

What type of handguard is it? Make/model? There's likely a dedicated accessory that will do exactly what you're looking for.

Not exactly what you asked for, but this might work for you. Can QD, Loop, or Clip off the side of the top rail. I love them.

This.

Looks like MLOK to me...

It says USA M. Other than that I don't know what the hand guard is.

Got a pic?

Is the M a particular font?

Block letter M. I can get a picture tomorrow.

That slot could very well be M-LOK. From the picture of your handguard relative to your gas block, the slot size is close to my M-LOK.

I'll go with mlok spec and order a swivel/mount.
Thanks for the help.
