Title says it all.  Am I missing something?  I have installed the factory issued sling and have it adjusted to the MAX length and it's still way too short.  Are these slings just made for a different purpose like strictly shoulder slung carry?  I have only had fixed stocked AK's with traditional sling mounts in the past.  What are popular modern slings for side folding ak's?

Something similar came up in AK Discussions recently.

Arsenal cheaped out on the included sling, the green sling they give you is not the standard length it's much shorter. It's been that way for a long time now

Blue Force Gear ak sling.  I just got one for my slr107 and it is great.  Strange having one side of the sling on the opposite side of the rifle but you get used to it.

They only work for carrying your rifle parade style on the shoulder.

If you want a full length Bulgarian sling in OD cotton, head to eBay with $15 to spend.
