Since we're on the topic of sling
Say I want to run a 2 point sling on a magpul moe hand guard carbine length. Should I mount the sling mount up by the gas block or by the receiver toward the back of the hand guard?

USGI type because that's what I was trained on and have always used. I go with what I know.
This. And only about $10.
Made it today . I'm cheap.....
Interesting. I haven't seen macrame since the 70's. Nice handiwork.
I meant where to get the $10 ones. Thanks though, a good second choice.

I believe my brown MS3 was about $45 plus tax from a local gun store, and I don't need to worry that it could be a knockoff. Personally, I'd just suck it up and pay the very slight premium to buy it from a reputable retailer, online or in-store.I am interested in this thread. The MS3 strikes me as something I would like.
Over the past 10+ years I have bought several hundred items on eBay (not much gun stuff), and had very few problems (items as little as $1 to up to $2,000).
There are lots of MS3 slings $30-50. $50 doesn't guarantee it is genuine. $30 doesn't guarantee it is a knock-off.
Incase I pick the wrong sling, has anyone here had experience with the knock-offs?
I'm not going to war; just looking for a sling for plinking, target practice, etc. Currently don't have any sling and want something. I like the idea I can use it both single (if I add the proper attachment where the buffer tube attaches to the lower), and as two point (probably my usual configuration).
Slings without quick releases are not for me. The MS3 with the standard clips that attach to a Stag rifle's factory sling "loops" is fine for me.
I also don't want to end up with multiple slings.... just one that is reasonably suitable.
TIA.

Magpul MS3 with the Magpul ASAP and RSA. Quality parts, allows you to use it as a single point or two point. I highly recommend it.
Vickers Cobra for my go-to "zombie" gun, Ron Brown leather for my service rifle competition guns, standard GI slings for the SHTF rifles that I have hidden away.
