Please offer up suggestions/pics of what is being used for 3-gun/tacticool/zombie intervention.  Just not up to date on what's available for the FALs sling-wise.  It will go on a 16.25 Argie, regular stock.

Thanks in advance.

I made up an Izzy hinge pin with a modified q.d. stud on the left side.
A Blackhawk single point attaches to it. It hangs pretty well but unless you are REALLY tall it's going to bang into your knees a lot.
It's on 16" barreled carbine with a full stock.

Only two FAL shooters using slings!?

Thanks for the response, I have an old black military sling on it now.  Went ahead and orderd the Wilderness Giles sling sight unseen.  I have the Giles on a few rifles and have always like the sling.  I was hoping to see some feedback on the adjustable slings out there but nobody shared...

Realistically I don't like the fact that actually slinging up with a standard rifle will significantly affect my POI vs unslung, it will be a few inches off when slung compared to unslung. Due to the fact the sling attachment is on the barrel. And I suspect this is also the reason militaries that issued the FAL didn't teach shooting with a sling. These days i just use a single point sling on mine.

Use an ASP single point on my para tactical. It looks really tacticool with my 30rd mag in!

Makes complete sense (sling attachment on the barrel), Thanks for the input.
