    Unfortunately boaters aren't too fond of tactical black.

    I posted this on lightfighter and several others that had come up with their own versions posted as well. Of course, I like mine best.

    I think the 2" steel ring I'm using needs to be smaller, but I need to settle on a snaphook that I like first in order to determine how much room I need.

    Nice. I use my BFG sling as a SP and 2P with an ASAP. I ended up ordering the BFG H&K hooks, and they work really good.

    DSG has a ton of different sling hardware to experiment with.

    Looks like it will work well, love DIY. Is the mount on your front sight tower robust enough to mount a light IYO? Sorry to get of course.

    It's been working well with a Surefire X300. I just took the light off for the pics.

    LOVING this setup. A few minor tweaks needed here and there but I ran it last night and it worked out great, AND addressed many of the issues I was having with the MS2. I'd still like a better clip than the one from the AK sling, but that same clip held this same sling on my AK for a year and nearly 4k rounds so I'm having a hard time doubting it.

    I like the Ms2 alot, but im not found of the lock jaw do dad. However between the Ms2, and my Gear Sector, I use both of them just as much for my working systems. The Vickers you modified looks like the best of both worlds of my two. I'm not sure what kind of attachment device would be best, but I'm thinking a plain jane HK hook would be good.

    Keep it up, I'm sure your going to find the answer before your done
