| Hey I want a good 3 point sling for my fixed stock AK-74, I've searched around but didn't find any good reviews, if not that does any one have experience with the blackhawk single point sling adapter that you can wrap on the buttstock? I think that would be a cool/comfy set up too. |

The reason you're not finding any good reviews is because the 3point is not a good system. Too many straps and adjustments. Very easy to get tangled up. There are lots of other options out there.
I don't have a full size AK anymore, but I tried different things and some worked and some didn't. |

I ended up making my own, then went with a single point sling that had the strap to wrap around the butt stock. Then went back to a traditional sling since everything else I have has the MS2 sling. OP, you should look into something like this and then get an MS2 or some other sling that will easily change from 2point to 1point. I think you will be much more satisfied. The changeable sling just offers way more options. I can tell you as an LEO my MS2 fits the bill. Single point for fighting, but most of the time you end up guarding a perimeter so it is nice to transition to a 2point because the weight is distributed much better. Just my 2 cents worth. |

I think I'll go with that option, got any links to single point slings that transition to 2 point slings? Everybody gets mad when I post Botach stuff, but that was just the first one I came across. MS2 Sling |

I'm typing from my phone so excuse the errors.
I used to run that blackhawk single point adapter and a MS2 sling. If you run the adapter in the skinny part of a warsaw length stock is very annoying. I rest my face close to the reciever so I actually mounted the adapter up on the trunion area and put the screw threw it to hold in place. One warning, the magpul ms2 is an awesome sling but it will not work with a stock AK. The clip for the front is way to big for the AK front sling hookup. I was running a CAA lhv47 handguard with a modified QD swiel for the sling. It works fine, but I ditched the MS2 for a vickers combat applications sling and I haven't looked back. The vickers is a much better option IMO. All you need is a VCAS sling and a mash hook adapter and you are GTG on an AK. I try to support larry vickers as often as possible since he still shows interest in the AK platform. |
