It's now generally accepted that tactical slings should be mounted on the side of the weapon. In addition to being side mounted, more and more operators require the Sling Mount to provide the Quick Detach option. GG&G designed, tested and currently manufactures front AR-15 QD Sling Adapters that fill this specific mission requirement.
