AR newbie here. Ruger AR556 with the floating MLOK rail
I want to get a sling for it that has the quick disconnects. I think I’m gonna go with a Blue Force Gear Vickers sling with QDs (unless y’all have a better recommendation)
https://www.blueforcegear.com/vickers-push-button-slings.html I have a Magpul MOE SL stock on my rifle. My simple question is, what do I need on the rail side to attach such a sling? And do I need anything for it to attach to the stock?
Thanks for any help

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Okay cool, so the stock is ready to go in regards to attaching the other end of the sling?

The stock has the QD attachment built in. All you need is the part TexFlip referenced and a sling with QD attachment configuration.

I prefer BFG Vickers but can't go wrong with Magpul either. I have and use both brands.

Thank you all! Got myself a padded Blue Force Gear Vickers with quick disconnects Now I just gotta figure out how to adjust this thing so it rests tight against me but still allows me to shoulder the rifle properly

Ya have to pick one either tight against ya or shoulder quick For the use ya have to have some slack When tight you can go hands free without it banging around
