Samson B.A. Sling Point Gas Block Cap For Mini-14 & Mini Thirty

Expanding the line of accessories that complements its factory-style folding stocks for Ruger Mini-14 and Mini Thirty rifles, Samson Mfg. now offers a gas block cap with a built-in sling point.

The cap is available in plain-finish 303 stainless steel or black-oxide 4140 chrome-moly steel and to fit 2007-or-earlier rifles with factory straight-pencil 0.562"-diameter barrels (serial number prefixes 181 through 199) and 2008-and-later guns with factory flanged 0.625"-diameter barrels (508 or higher prefix).

Simply remove the gas block screws and re-assemble using the new cap to attach a sling using conventional QD swivels or, with Samson’s optional Swivel Stud QD Adapter, push-button styles.

MSRP is $65. For more information, visit samson-mfg.com.
