CAA QD Push Button Sling Swivel

Product Description

The CAA QD Push Button Sling Swivel is a quick-detach swivel designed for rifles and shotguns equipped with QD sling sockets. It uses a spring-loaded push-button release mechanism to attach and detach from the firearm.

This swivel lets you mount and remove a two-point sling in seconds. Quick-detach hardware is faster than traditional loop swivels and quieter than snap hooks.

The push-button design works with standard QD cups found on many rifle stocks, handguards, and rail adapters. It pairs with slings that have a loop or webbing end.

Key Facts

• SKU: CAA-PBSS

How QD Push Button Swivels Work

A QD swivel has two spring-loaded ball bearings on opposite sides. When you press the button, both bearings retract and the swivel slides into the socket. Release the button and the bearings lock into detents inside the cup.

To remove, press the button and pull. The swivel rotates freely when installed, which reduces sling twist and keeps the webbing flat against your body.

Compatibility and Mounting

The CAA QD Push Button Sling Swivel fits any firearm with a QD socket or cup. AR-15 stocks, many shotgun stocks, and aftermarket rail mounts often include QD sockets at the rear or side.

You can add QD capability to guns without factory sockets by installing a QD-compatible stock, endplate, or rail-mounted adapter. The swivel attaches to the loop end of your sling with a girth hitch or by threading through a sewn loop.

If you need help matching this swivel to your rifle or choosing a compatible sling, call 817-393-4000 to confirm fitment before ordering.

QD Swivels vs. Loop Swivels

Traditional loop swivels thread into studs and require you to unscrew them for removal. Quick-detach swivels lock and unlock with one hand, so you can remove the sling before storing the rifle or switch between firearms quickly.

QD swivels also sit flush when installed. There is no protruding stud or hook to snag on gear or clothing. Browse our full selection of slings and shooting accessories to pair with this swivel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What firearms does the CAA QD Push Button Sling Swivel fit?

A: The CAA QD Push Button Sling Swivel fits any rifle or shotgun with a standard QD socket or cup. AR-15 rifles with QD-equipped stocks, many tactical shotguns, and firearms with aftermarket QD mounts are compatible. If your gun does not have a QD socket, you can add one with an aftermarket stock, endplate, or rail adapter.

Q: How do I attach a sling to this QD swivel?

A: You attach a sling to the swivel by threading the loop end of the sling through the swivel’s eye or by using a girth hitch. Most two-point slings have a loop or webbing end designed to connect to swivels. The swivel then clicks into the QD socket on your firearm.

Q: Is the CAA QD swivel compatible with Magpul QD sockets?

A: Yes, QD swivels follow a standard size and the CAA QD Push Button Sling Swivel works with Magpul and other brands’ QD sockets. The ball-detent locking mechanism is a common specification across manufacturers, so cross-brand compatibility is typical.

Q: Can I use this swivel on both ends of my sling?

A: You can use QD swivels on both ends if your rifle has two QD sockets and your sling is set up for it. Many shooters use one QD swivel at the rear and a different attachment method at the front, depending on what mounting points their handguard or barrel clamp provides.

Q: How do I remove the CAA QD swivel from the socket?

A: Press the push button on the side of the swivel body and pull the swivel straight out of the socket. The button retracts the locking ball bearings so the swivel slides free. Release the button once the swivel is clear.

Q: Can Western Sport help me choose the right sling hardware for my rifle?

A: Yes, our team can recommend slings and swivels that match your rifle and shooting style. Call 817-393-4000 to speak with our staff in Roanoke. We can confirm compatibility and suggest complete sling setups for your build.
