Very good swivels! - BlackHawk Lok-Down

If you adjust your sling length often for position shooting, swivels with round wire loops work better than the more recently available "heavy duty" swivels with square cross-section loops. The metal locking barrel on the QR button makes the Blackhawks a step above the typical Uncle Mikes swivels for looks after installation, but Uncle Mikes must have a much better assembly process for the sling loop, because the Blackhawk swivels have an obvious weld joint in the middle of the loop, and some are done much better than others. The Uncle Mikes swivels have NO weld joint in the loop and a plastic locking barrel on the QR button. My rifle wears Blackhawks, but I think the UM's swivels are just as serviceable, just more "pedestrian" because they're everywhere.
Pros: Metal locking barrel on QR button, Smooth finish to aide sling adjustments
Cons: Minor cosmetic issue with weld on loop, They're shiny
