1st end plate sling adapter change

[Larryjr]

It may seem like no big deal but I just finished changing my first end plate sling adapter on my AR. Made it so I can have a one point sling. I have been dreading it as I had been told there were two springs to deal with. It really wasn't that bad but I'm still proud of myself.

congrats on my replacement i really want one of those but those darn ak's keep multiply faster than my ar budget...... on my build the back retain pin detent got lost so i had to improvise i made a pin out of a needle bearing left over from a driveshaft universal joint replacement (hey it works) i just broke it with a chisel to about the proper length..... i do have a replacement for it but so far ive seen no reason to replace it just yet

@duffman - gotta work with what you got when you got it.
