Leave it in the safe if you don't want scratches

+1 Those scratches are called "charactor"

Or try using some electrical tape.

Run a closed loop of paracord through the adaptor - clamp the single point sling to the cord.

Mine does too. You can tape it. I feel it's like the marks the brass leave on the deflector. Is your castle nut staked on?

+1 Those scratches look great, but you need some more.

P.S. Welcome to the site.

You need the sling attachement with the push button swivel.
