Midwest Industries Mctar-07 Stud Mount Adapter
The Midwest Industries MCTAR-07 stud mount adapter gives you a dependable front sling attachment point on any AR-platform rifle or tactical carbine equipped with a Picatinny or Weaver-style handguard rail. This two-piece clamp design secures solidly to your rail with a single cross-bolt, offering the kind of no-fuss, rock-solid mounting that keeps your sling exactly where you need it during hunting, competition, or duty use.
Unlike integrated sling mounts, the MCTAR-07 uses a fixed, dome-shaped stud rather than a built-in swivel. That design choice gives you the flexibility to run your own standard quick-detach (QD) swivel, letting you dial in the exact sling setup that works best for your rifle and shooting style. You're not locked into one manufacturer's swivel design or width—just thread on any compatible QD swivel and go.
Build quality is straightforward and purpose-built. The clamp engineering ensures the adapter stays put under the recoil and movement that comes with actual shooting, whether you're working a tactical course, hunting rough country, or running drills at the range. The fixed stud design means no moving parts at the mount itself, which translates to reliability you can count on. If you want your own choice of swivel hardware, the MCTAR-07 is the no-compromise route.
