Forward Controls Design QD Swivel

Forward Controls Design's approach to QD accessories represents their philosophy of thoughtful engineering and no-compromise quality. While specific QD swivel models vary (including the MSQ-H M-LOK mount with integrated QD socket), FCD products consistently deliver rotation-limited functionality that eliminates the frustration of tangled slings during weapon transitions and movement.

The rotation-limiting feature is the key innovation that sets FCD QD products apart from standard swivels. Rather than allowing full 360-degree rotation that leads to twisted webbing, FCD implements controlled rotation that keeps the sling properly oriented while still allowing necessary movement for transitions. This design philosophy prioritizes real-world tactical functionality over theoretical versatility.

Typical FCD QD products feature billet-machined construction from 4140 steel with black nitride finish, delivering tensile strength of 95,000 psi - significantly higher than aluminum alternatives (7075-T6 at 73,000 psi, 6061 at 40,000 psi). Made in the USA with FCD's signature attention to detail and finish quality, these components represent the premium tier of sling attachment hardware. For users who demand the best and understand the value of preventing sling tangling issues before they occur, FCD delivers.
