Caldwell AR Receiver End Plate Sling Mount, Steel, Black

Description

When you want a single-point sling on your AR without adding a bunch of rails or bulky hardware, the Caldwell AR Receiver End Plate Sling Mount is about as simple and dependable as it gets. It replaces the standard end plate that sits between your lower receiver and the buffer tube, and it gives you a built-in loop to clip a snap-hook style sling right where the stock meets the receiver. No extra parts hanging off your gun, no wobble, just a solid piece of steel doing exactly one job well.

What the Caldwell End Plate Sling Mount Brings to Your Build

This is one solid steel plate, not a stamped-together assembly, and that's what people tend to like about it. The steel construction holds up to real-world hauling, and it accepts snap-hook style attachments so you can run most common single-point slings straight out of the bag. Made in the USA, it carries a clean black finish that blends right in with a standard AR setup.

An Ambidextrous Setup for Lefties and Righties Alike

The loop is positioned so it works whether you shoulder the rifle on your left or right side, which makes this a friendly pickup for shared range guns or anyone who runs their AR both ways. Pair it with a single-point bungee sling and you've got a fast, hands-free carry option that keeps the rifle close and ready.

Installation is straightforward for anyone who's taken a buffer tube on and off. You'll pull the castle nut and existing end plate, drop this one in its place, and torque the castle nut back down. It's worth double-checking charging handle clearance during assembly, since the sling ring sits at the rear of the receiver. A quick test cycle before you head to the range confirms everything moves the way it should.

For folks piecing together a build or upgrading a factory carbine, this is a no-fuss way to add a genuine steel sling point without spending a lot or complicating the gun.
