Howdy Folks!
I'm a long time visitor of this site and have received quite an education on the 15-22 rifle through my reading. I recently acquired a 15-22 Sport for my birthday (wife was very gracious) and I have begun the task of modifying it to my personal needs. I have a couple of questions that I would love everyone's take on as it pertains to purchasing a two-point sling for this rifle:
To clarify, I'm keeping the original stock for now, so I'm going to make the stationary metal loop at the bottom work for now. Obviously, I need an m-lok attachment of some kind for the handguard so I can attach a sling at the upper end.
1. Paraclip or QD Swivel?
I like the quick and slick QD thing that I'm seeing on youtube videos, but I wonder if the swivel will "click" as I am moving about. I will be primarily plinking and squirrel/raccoon hunting with this, so I will be walking a lot in the woods with it strapped over shoulder. Paraclip mounts seem stationary which would solve that problem, but maybe I want it o swivel with me as I walk? Not sure, just trying to think through it.
2. Which sling?
With a very light gun such as this, I guess heavy duty shouldn't be necessary. Do you all have any recommendations? My budget would be $40-$50 dollar range.
I sure appreciate it fellas!
