    Do they make brass QD sling swivels?

    Just wondered does anyone make QD sling swivels in brass? Or is it brass binds on the threads or is not strong enough for carrying a rifle? I would love a set to go on one of my guns to go with the other brass bling. Regards. Chris

    I've seen brass ones on dodgy Chinese sites.
    Amazon UK has Nickel plated for about £7 (for studs & swivels)

    If you cant find brass ones but can find steel ones ,you can brass them yourself with a blow torch and a brass brush . heat the part and then use the brass brush on them. the brass transfers onto the hot steel.

    possibly better using a brass brush on a drill or die grinder
