Spring come loose, Jaw loses tension 05/01/2014
The build quality on this snap hook feels very sturdy, and I like that the slot is wide enough to support a 1.25" wide sling. Unfortunately, the sling hook I purchased stopped functioning properly after only very short and light use.
Specifically, the spring came loose from its channel. This outcome appears to have made possible due to the non-riveted pin drifting slowly but surely outwards.
As a result, tension is no longer placed on the jaw, and the snap hook can no longer be relied on the stay secured onto the sling attachment point of the firearm in use.
After the Brownells snap hook failed on me, I purchased a different snap hook (unknown brand) for $4.99, which *did* have a riveted pin - and as a result, has yet to fail on me.
I have included 2 photos with this review: one shows the Brownells-brand snap hook next to a different snap hook with a riveted pin, the other shows how the spring on the Brownells snap hook came loose and is sticking out of the side.
If Brownells were to start making and selling this snap hook with a riveted pin, I would give it a 5/5 rating without hesitation. Until that happens, I would suggest people avoid buying this snap hook, and instead purchase any other snap hook with a riveted pin.
Great for for 1" Tac Slings (Mag, VTAC) 12/09/2012
these HK Style hooks are strong and have a good durable finish. I'm using them on 4 different rifles, all with different attachment points and they work well with all of them.
FYI: In the past, I have made the mistake of ordering the 1.25" sling hooks and QD adapters for my 1" slings. Big mistake... way too big for 1" slings, making for sloppy fits and poor aesthetics. Make sure and measure the width of your slings BEFORE you order attachments for them.
