Midwest Industries Heavy Duty Sling Swivel
The Midwest Industries Heavy Duty Sling Swivel is a no-nonsense attachment point for riflemen who want reliable, American-made hardware on their AR-15 or traditional sling stud–equipped rifle. Built from all-steel construction and manufactured entirely in the USA, this swivel bridges your gun and sling with the kind of durability you'd expect from a company that understands what hunters, precision shooters, and tactical users actually demand.
If you're running a 1-1/4" sling—the standard width for most hunting and tactical rifle setups—this swivel will snap securely onto a traditional sling stud base. The locking knurled thumb sleeve keeps things tight under field conditions, so your sling won't spin loose while you're climbing a ridge, settling into a shooting position, or moving between stations at the range. That's the difference between a part that stays put and one that creeps and nags you all day.
Whether you're outfitting a new build, replacing worn hardware, or consolidating your sling ecosystem across multiple rifles, a quality swivel is the kind of small, forgotten detail that either works without drama or drives you crazy. Midwest Industries got this one right.
