Attaching a Sling to an AR-15

I have my PSA AR-15 ( first one for me), I want to attach a sling. I see a sling that I like,

my question is how do I attach to my rifle? I see two clips on each end of the sling, but not sure there is a spot on the rifle to attach.

Thanks,

What SP said…you will probably have to add/change some hardware. It isnt hard. Also, i personally do not like bungee slings. A standard adjustable sling (like magpul, bfg, etc.) Works better for me.

Sorry, I should have known to do that.

Glad to know about the bungee slings. This will be my first sling, I am not sure how to make an informed decision.

With that rifle you have a QD hole on each side of the rail near the upper. The slot in the stock is how you attach to the back. So find a sling with a single qd point (or find a sling with no attachments and buy one separately that you can add).

personally im against bungiee slings as well. I like aa good 2 point or 3 point convertable sling. Sherriff of Baghdad makes a great 2 point sling, and believe it or not Magpul’s ms3 ms4 line is pretty good too in my experience. I’ve also heard a few folks say Vickers slings are good, but i havent used one yet.

my sling has built on QD’s

Savy Sniper makes it i think

Primary Arms is having a 12% off site wide sale. Buy their basic black sling ($5 i think) and a set of qd swivels and call it a day.

its the bigger one right behind the rectangle mlok slots

this could be an opportunity for PSA to put together a simple ‘All things AR’ manual (PDF and individually linked chapters) for basic/newbie items like butt stock swaps, gas block adjustments, sling attachments, front site post adjustments, etc. - sort of like a manual or arms but much more basic with pictures!

Would this work for my rifle?

One end going into the slot in the stock, and:

Personally i’d go with a QD hook up like this :

of course it can seutp in a 1 way or 2 way attachment to the rifle, but thats just me.

Being an unpaid mod has its perks. For example, my name gets dragged through the mud when i ban someone. It brings me great joy.
