It appears to be similar to the plate that's included with the Colt Canada civi rifles as in the pic in the previous post but i can't tell if it's the same or not.
GATO, given your experience with C8 builds, can you shed some light on this? Also can you advise what "factory" C8's are issued with?

C8 had no sling plate
C8A1 had no sling plate
C8A2 was a C8 with a cold hammer forged barrel (14.5) never adopted by cf
C8 SFW had no sling plate
C8FTHB had no sling plate
C8A3 same sling plate as C7A2 from what I've seen
Obviously, some groups may alter them, at which point it becomes a bit of a crap shoot. SF are a particularily bad example in terms of "standard" kit
