Anybody mount a single point sling on their C model. If so I would love some suggestions on how you did it.
Pictures would be even better!

Thanks

I used a clevis pin in the stock pivot hole and attached key ring through the clevis' pin hole. You'll hardly notice (if at all) the flat end of the clevis pin in the palm of your hand. This works great for single point and hangs well off of my MS-3 sling.

For the ability to also have a 2 pointer, I attached a standard sling ring in the hole up front (I tried a key ring by itself, but it not only looked funky, it also was a nuisance to try to attach to), left behind by the removal of the original bipod stock. Again, with my Magpul sling (and I'm sure it'd work with many others too) I can switch between single and 2-point carry easily and quickly.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the info. Never heard of a clevis pin. Where can I get one and what size did you get?

Hardware stores. Try Home Depot or Lowes or a local hardware/machine shop. I think the width of the original pin is 1/8", take it along to confirm diameter. And don't forget, that it will need to be longer, about a 1/4" or so to accommodate the hole in the end of the pin to run the key ring through.

Thanks, I will take the pin with me when I go.
