Description
The old-school GI sling loop has been getting the job done on rifles for generations, and Magpul brought that same simple, bombproof design straight to the M-LOK world. The M-LOK GI Sling Swivel gives you a traditional fixed loop that accepts up to 1-1/4 inch webbing, so your favorite two-point or field sling threads right through and stays put. If you like the tried-and-true feel of a standard sling loop over a quick-detach setup, this is the piece you're after.
What Makes the M-LOK GI Sling Swivel Tick
The base is machined from Mil-Spec anodized aluminum to keep weight down and shrug off wear, while the loop itself is coated steel that won't chew through your sling webbing over time. It anchors to your handguard using cammed T-nuts and integral recoil and impact mitigation lugs, which is Magpul's way of making sure the mount grabs the M-LOK slot and doesn't budge under recoil or hard handling. All the mounting hardware you need comes in the package, so you can have it installed in a couple minutes with a single tool.
Why the Low Profile Matters
At around eight tenths of an ounce and only sitting about four tenths of an inch off the handguard surface, this swivel practically disappears. The beveled edges and slim body cut down on snagging when you're moving through brush, working around gear, or slinging up quick. That compact footprint also frees up more real estate on your handguard for lights, grips, or wherever your hand wants to ride.
It fits any M-LOK compatible handguard or forend, which makes it a versatile pickup for AR builds, bolt guns wearing Magpul furniture, rimfire setups, and plenty in between. Made in the USA, it carries the same build quality Magpul is known for at a price that makes adding a proper sling point an easy call.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size sling does the M-LOK GI Sling Swivel work with?
The coated steel loop accepts sling webbing up to 1-1/4 inches wide, which covers most standard two-point and field slings on the market. Anything wider than that won't thread through cleanly, so stick to 1.25 inch or narrower webbing for the best fit.
Does this fit any M-LOK handguard?
Yes, it mounts to any M-LOK compatible handguard or forend. It uses cammed T-nuts and recoil mitigation lugs that lock into the M-LOK slots, so as long as your rail is genuine M-LOK it'll bolt right up.
Is the M-LOK GI Sling Swivel a quick-detach setup?
No, this is a fixed loop-style swivel rather than a QD mount. Your sling threads directly through the steel loop, giving you a permanent, no-fuss attachment point. If you want to pop your sling on and off quickly, Magpul's M-LOK QD Sling Mount is the better route.
Does it come with the hardware to install it?
It does. All the mounting hardware you need is included in the package, so you only need a common hex tool to get it seated and torqued onto your handguard in a couple of minutes.
