I was tinkering with some strap and buckles trying to come up with a good sling for my Yugo underfolder and accidentally came up with a great design (toots own horn). I was equally amazed that I was able to repliacte the improvised concoction on my Romy underfolder. If I were motivated enough I think I could sell these, assuming there are enough freaks like me looking for a 2/3 point sling for an underfolder. I ended up with what I tought was a decent enough 3 point sling and accidentally discovered that, if I lifted up on the left side of the buckle, the sling would pull through the left loop and create a 2 point sling automatically. Also it becomes a quick disconeect sling by simply reelasing the buckle! It's hard for me to explain what i mean without a video and i doubt this is interesting enough to justify one but you might get the jist from the pics. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. I'm gonna resoot these with my camera:
Here's the Yugo with the sling in 3 point mode. When shouldered the sling is tight enough to add a good deal of stability for aiming with or without the stock extended. With the stock extended the sling naturally rests against the left arm of the stock which feels better than the stock alone. 
Here's the Yugo with the sling in 2 point mode. Ready to be slung across the back, over the shoulder or left side carry. 
Same deal with the Romy. 3 point. 
2 point. 
Here's a shot of the buckle.
