calviroman Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I have a M4 and want to remove the factory front sling mount. Is there any reason I cant just remove it by using snap ring pliers and removing the snap ring and the sling mount? I installed a QD sling & flashlight mount combo and the factory sling mount is just in the way now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticky Fingers Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Snap ring pliers and no worries. Do you need to remove it completly in order to rotate the sling mount, I want it 90 degrees to the right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Yes. Once you remove the snap ring, the sling mount will slip off. It then can be reindexed to whatever position you want. Then reinstall the snap ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
