I don't know about your particular rifle, but buy a protective cup for your crotch because that's where your rifle will slam into you when u let go of it.
I view single point and 3 point slings as failed experiments. We tried both at the sheriff's office I worked at.
How about a Vickers Blue Force 2 point sling from Brownells?
I've been happy with them.

If you have the standard version you'll see a ring on the bottom of the butt. If you have the MOE, the sling attatchment point is on the left side of the buttstock closer to the buffer tube. Doesn't look like you'll need anything other than the sling itself.

FYI... check my classified ad as I have a brand new, unused, unopened BDS Tactical two-point to one point sling in coyote. For two point use you'll need a rail attachment to clip it to up front as well as a point on the stock which is already there... you'll want to use in two point mostly as it is an aid in stabilizing when shooting and you won't need a cup to protect your groin like others stated.

Single point sling is known as the Pendulum of Pain for a good reason. Only known use is posturing on the range. Takes at least one hand on it to control it. Transition to your handgun and them move? Forget it! Useless but looks kool...

I'd use single point for rifle caliber pistols but that's about it.

Ive seen some slings that can be both 1 or 2 point. I think Magpul makes one. To lazy to look them up right now. You will have to get a sling attachment point that connected to the front rail to attach the sling to the front of the gun.

Magpul MS2 and MS3. I've got an MS3 and love it. It switches between my 15-22 and my M-4, until I buy a second one just for work.

Another 2point/single point sling is the Emdom Gunslinger. I bought one to use on my last deployment in 2009 and it has been great.

+1 for the Vickers Blue Force Gear 2 point sling. I use it on my social rifle and it works great.
