I am tired of carrying my rifle and would like to hear some sling recomendations. I have a colt 6920 with a sling swivel at the 9 o clock position on the barrels and the 4 position collapsing buttstock with the swivel on the bottom and the slot thru the stock if that makes sense. I don't know anything about tactical slings, 1 point vs. 2 point and would like to hear the pros and cons of each. I will be using this sling to carry the rifle mostly, not aid in shooting as with a 1907 sling, and I would like the rifle to hang diagonally across my chest from upper right to lower left, and be capable of fast transitions. Thanks for your help, as I know nothing about this topic.

Sounds like you pretty much want an adjustable 2 point.
Lots of options for your rear attachment.  You can add hardware to mount it or you can use a fairly simple web adapter.
The Gear Sector GS-2P would be good.  A stock stub adapter would fit around the stock, or you could get a new receiver end plate or a clamping module if you didn't want to mess with removing the extension.
