Description
If you own a Remington 742 in Standard or ADL trim and want a clean way to hang a sling, this Uncle Mike's swivel set takes the mystery out of it. Rather than making you drill and tap your fore-end, the kit uses an adapter base that replaces the factory fore-end bolt, giving you a solid front mounting point that's built for your exact rifle. The set includes 1 inch loop swivels, which is the standard width that fits just about any leather, nylon, or webbing sling you'd want to run.
Why This Uncle Mike's Set Fits the 742 So Well
This is a model-specific kit, not a universal setup, and that's the whole point. It's cut to work with the 742 Standard and ADL fore-end, so the base seats where it should and the swivel sits flush. One thing worth flagging before you order: it will not fit the 742 BDL, so double-check which version of the rifle you've got. Getting that right up front saves you the return trip.
Quick Detach Convenience in the Field
These are quick-detach swivels, which means the sling comes on and off without tools once everything is mounted. The close machining tolerances give you smooth, quiet operation, so there's no metallic click or rattle to spook game when you're moving through the woods. That silent carry is a big deal for deer and elk hunters who cover ground on foot and need both hands free for climbing or glassing.
Built From Steel, Finished in Blued
The whole set is steel with a blued finish, so it holds up to hard use and blends in with the classic look of a 742. Uncle Mike's has been making sling hardware for decades, and this kit carries that same reputation for strength and dependable fit. Pair it with a rear stud or swivel and a sling of your choice, and your 742 is ready for the range or the deer stand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this swivel set fit my Remington 742 BDL?
No, this kit is designed for the 742 Standard and ADL models only. The adapter base is cut to replace the factory fore-end bolt on those specific rifles, so it will not fit the 742 BDL. Check which version you have before ordering to make sure it's a match.
Do I need to drill or tap my fore-end to install these?
No drilling required for the front mount. The adapter base simply replaces the factory fore-end bolt on your 742 Standard or ADL, giving you a ready-made mounting point. This is what makes the kit a straightforward, direct-fit upgrade.
What size sling will work with these swivels?
The swivels use a 1 inch loop, which is the most common width for rifle slings. That means most leather, nylon, and webbing slings on the market will thread right through. If your sling is 1 inch wide, you're good to go.
Are these swivels quiet enough for hunting?
Yes, the close machining tolerances give them smooth, silent operation with no metallic rattle. That's a real advantage when you're still-hunting or stalking wary game like deer and elk. The quick-detach design also lets you pull the sling off in seconds when you're ready to shoot.
