Looks like one more announcement from ALG Defense (http://www.algdefense.com/)on a new product. Like everything else they offer, the 3 letter acronym is back, this time in the form of a FSS, the Forged Sling Swivel. See the description from ALG Defense (http://www.algdefense.com/) below:
One more product that we will have on display at SHOT will be the Forged Sling Swivel (FSS)! The FSS weighs in at roughly 0.5 ounces and is about half the weight of similar steel QD sling swivel assemblies. The FSS is forged from 7075 T6 aluminum, which is the same aluminum and manufacturing process used to make mil-spec upper and lower receivers. This process allows the FSS to be very strong and can withstand pull forces of up to 800lbs. The body of the FSS is type 3 hardcoated for a durable finish, while the button is Black Nitride processed. Initially black will be the only color option with gray soon to follow. The FSS will retail at $32!
