Sizing of the "long universal loop"

I bought an SOC-C pack when they first came out and found that the long universal loop was exactly the right size to wrap around a set of M4-type oval handguards. Add a zip tie through a vent hole to make sure it doesn’t move around and this provides an excellent way of attaching a sling at the rear of a normal set of handguards.

But when I ordered a couple more long loops I found that they are a little shorter and won’t fit around oval handguards. Is this a change to the size or is this simply a tolerance that worked in my favor before but against me the second time around? Would it be possible to get a half dozen green loops in the older, slightly longer version?

Thanks in advance.

Hoplophile,

Our long universal loops were not specifically sized for that use but they should all be the same length +/- 1/4". Please email me at sales at blueforcegear.com and we’ll get it figured out.

Best regards,

Ashley
