The Caldwell AR Receiver End Plate Sling Mount transforms any AR-15 into a tactical platform with secure single-point sling attachment. This steel end plate replaces the standard buffer tube end plate to provide a dedicated mounting point that won't interfere with stock operation or cheek weld.
What Makes This Different
Unlike clip-on sling attachments that can shift under stress, this end plate integrates permanently into the receiver extension assembly. The steel construction handles repeated sling tension without deformation, while the low-profile design maintains the rifle's original lines. Standard end plates offer no sling mounting options, forcing users to rely on less secure rail-mounted alternatives.
Key Features
- Machined steel construction for maximum strength under dynamic movement
- Single-point sling attachment loop positioned for optimal balance
- Direct replacement for standard AR-15/M4 buffer tube end plates
- Low-profile design maintains stock functionality and sight picture
- Matte black finish resists corrosion and reduces glare
- Compatible with mil-spec and commercial buffer tube assemblies
- Accepts standard castle nut installation without modification
Field performance centers on reliable sling retention during rapid transitions and movement. The integrated loop eliminates the weak points found in detachable systems, maintaining consistent sling positioning whether conducting room clearing, vehicle operations, or competitive shooting. The steel construction withstands the repeated stress cycles that cause aluminum alternatives to crack at mounting points.
