magpul ms2

[soldier-of-the-apocalypse]

So i ordered the magpul ms2 sling, magpul asap sling mount and magpul rsa on ebay for the sr556 today does anybody else have this set up? how do you like it? i like that i cand do single point or double BTW the whole setup was 78.88 and it also came with a wrench

[DANGERTASTIC!]

Ya youre gonna like it. Super easy to use and has 2point/single point capabilities. Good choice. The Ms3 should be out soon.

If you have any questions about installation just ask. It can be frustrating the first time.

I have an ASAP on both of my set ups

i shouldnt have any problems ive done it all before ive built 5 lowers so far with another one on the way so i know my way around but thanks. the whole setup should be here on fri or sat . what is the difference between ms2 and ms3 cause i wanted the ms3 but im a gots ta have it now kind of guy so i got the ms2 I figured I would just get the ms3 when it came out if I like the ms2.

It looks like the ms3 just has some different hardware but should work the same. The clasp for the rear looks like the front one on the ms2, the front clasp looks different, and the ring for single point mode looks a little different.

I'm also a fan of the ms2 setup I have. I really like going between single and two point so easily in addition to just being able to take the whole thing off with no problem. The adjustment method is also really well thought out. I'm also a big fan of having the rear attachment closer to the reciever as opposed to the end of the stock. While all that stuff isn't exclusive to magpul it's nice to have it all together.

It does work the same. The whole thing is rediesigned with different hardware and materials.

Have you put an ASAP plate in? I thought the original question was about the ASAP plate. Or are you explaining that BECAUSE you have built 5 lowers you wont have any problem and it negates the fact that the ASAP plate wont be any different due to your experience building lowers.

I was simply stating that IF you had questions about it ask. I have seen alot of the same question

[soldier-of-the-apocalypse]

not the asap but ive put on other single point sling plates on and a magpul obr stock on is there any difference

Nope. It just replaces the plate. You can't even put it on backwards by accident.

[DANGERTASTIC!]

The difference is the stupid little "detent" block they include. It can be a bitch to get lined up sometimes.

Im usually pretty good about getting it the first time. Sometimes it goes in sideways.

So holding the plate and getting the rear takedown pin spring to stay put while putting that thing in sometimes can suck.

The ASAP isnt like a normal end plate

[soldier-of-the-apocalypse]

does it thread on or jus slide on and then you put the lock nut on like a normal plate
