Setting up M&P 15-22 for Appleseed

[MK11]

I'm signed up for my first Appleseed course next month. I'll be using my M&P 15-22 but I'm having trouble identifying the right swivel and sling mounts that will accommodate the USGI sling that Appleseed focuses on.

Anyone take an Appleseed course with this set-up? If so, what hardware did you use? Thanks!

You should have a fixed std rear 1-1/4" sling mount at the rear, but not sure what you need for the front. If you have a std millspec handguard there is usually a riveted sling mount attached to the front handguard bracket. If you have a quad rail you need to buy a front sling mount adaptor. I too am shooting Appleseed next month but i'm using my Ruger 10/22.

1.25" sling swivels( sling can be bought here too) : http://store.rwvaappleseed.com/page13.html

If your rail doesn't have a QD socket on the bottom, use this: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/66...andard-sling-swivel-stud-ar-15-aluminum-matte

If it does have a QD socket, than one of these will also work instead of the above: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/17...tach-sling-swivel-1-1-4-steel-pack-of-2-black
