Any suggestions for cleanly mounting a two point sling to a 556R? I am not a fan of MASH hook style mounts, or HK style hooks. I'd like to attach QD sockets directly to the factory mount points on the gas block and rear of the lower receiver, in a manner similar to IWC's SCAR mounts. I've found nothing similar for the 556. If I don't find something more to my liking, I'll use BFG's 3.25" UWL. Anyone have a cool way to mount a sling to a 556R?
Thanks in advance. |

wtwining, I like the looks of the OD CLS sling on your rifle. It has some cool character.
lilMAC25, I've considered doing exactly that. Unfortunately, there are probably five year olds that can do a better looking job tying paracord than I can.  I'll have to experiment.
The IWC mounts are good. I have them on a few of my ARs. They are just not what I want as far as aestetics. |

Then I clip my preferred attachment (HK clip in my case, but Magpul paraclips work very well) onto the cord loop. Voila. |
