The Timber Creek Outdoors QDEPBL QD End Plate transforms standard AR-15 and AR-10 platforms with integrated quick detach capability for sling attachment. This hardcoat anodized aluminum component eliminates the need for separate QD mounts while maintaining the structural integrity of the buffer tube assembly.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic end plates that require additional hardware for sling attachment, this QD end plate incorporates a flush-mounted quick detach socket directly into the design. The ambidextrous configuration allows sling attachment from either side, providing tactical flexibility without compromising the rifle's profile. Standard end plates offer no sling attachment points, forcing users to add bulky adapters or rail-mounted solutions.
Key Features
- Integrated QD socket eliminates need for separate sling mounts
- Hardcoat anodized Type III aluminum construction resists wear and corrosion
- Ambidextrous design accommodates left and right-handed operation
- Direct replacement for mil-spec AR-15/AR-10 end plates
- Flush-mount design maintains clean rifle profile
- Compatible with standard castle nuts and buffer tube assemblies
- Accepts all mil-spec 1.25" QD swivels
Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes and adverse conditions. The hardcoat anodizing provides superior surface hardness compared to standard Type II finishes, extending service life in high-round-count applications. Competition shooters benefit from the streamlined sling management, while tactical users appreciate the ambidextrous capability for rapid transitions between shooting positions.
