I have a new Sport that I bought recently. I have been going through all the posts looking for a sling that would mount on this gun without any modifications.

Is there a sling that would just clip on the existing attach points? Maybe with quick disconnects?

Aren't there sling loops in the buttstock as well as on the gas block?

They come with sling swivels fore and aft from the factory. Depending on your plans for the rifle, you can attach a shooting sling or a simple carry strap like on a bolt gun used for deer hunting. Surplus Garand slings can be used for both purposes.

I don't do tactical, so someone else will have to chime in on those.

Yes front of hand guard and back of buttstock.

The gun doesn't have any swivels that I can see.

The "attachment loops" are known as front and rear sling swivels, although the rear one does not move.

I always buy surplus AR 1" nylon slings with metal sliders for my long guns. I get them on EBay, I have gotten them for my neighbor as well. If the gun is heavier I have used commercial slings with a pad for the shoulder, but this is rare for me as I have few really heavy guns. The slings I buy are surplus from the Vietnam War. Getting metal sliders on them is important as plastic ones slip and won't last as long.

Is the rear one supposed to move? Maybe it's just very snug?
It looks like any other standard carbine 6-*** buttstock, and I've seen others where the rear sling loop can rotate to the left or right.

Yes the back has a slot and attach point that doesn't seem to move. The front one moves. I guess from what I have seen you have to get a sling and just loop it through the attach fittings or around the stock. I was hoping for something more simple and easy to disconnect.

The Red Rock duty sling looks to be what I am looking for but I can't tell what kind of fittings it is using to connect.

Thanks everyone for the help.

Oh, if you're looking for quicker solutions, then you'd have to get a separate mount attached to your handguard or piece together some other solution, like adding rails to the side of your front sight and then adding a sling stud or QD socket to that. You could also replace the handguard altogether with one that has a QD hole in it.

For the rear point, you can swap out your buttstock with one that has a QD hole, or you can change out your receiver end plate for one that has a QD hole (that's the flat metal piece that sits in front of your castle nut)

Now I realize why people buy the upgraded models.

Adding a sling connection is not that difficult. If you use the M1 Garand style sling as suggested, you would run the sling through the front attachment point, but just attach it to the rear with the hook on the sling. It disconnects at the rear quickly and allows you to sling up for shooting from field positions.

What sling are you wanting to use?

Ideally one that I don't have to add or make modifications to the gun. Just something simple. Actually the one you mentioned might be alright. I may order it.

That is the type of sling I use on mine. As another poster said, it isn't that tactical, but it is what I learned to shoot with growing up.

I didn't click the link on Amazon, but word of advice... get one that is cotton vs. nylon. The cotton ones lock up better, where the keeper will sometimes slide on the nylon ones. Brownells carries the cotton web ones if the Amazon one is nylon.

I have sling mounts galore. I don't use a sling.

I do when shooting offhand, or when shooting while hunting. I may not fully strap in, but at least a quick hasty sling is used to steady and provide additional support.

When I had a 15-Sport, I had it set up for either single point or two point use via QD sling swivel's. 99.99999% of the time it was in two point mode. Why? Without a vest, plate, and chest rig pushing the rifle outwards from my chest, the single point setup turned a 15-Sport into a testicle busting pendulum.

They say learning to shoot a handgun under simulated stress is a good thing. It is not fun when your single point slinged rifle whacks you in the nuts when you practice transitioning to your side arm. You get whacked in the nuts, there is that slight delay where you realize you've whacked your testicles but the pain hasn't started yet, as you're drawing your sidearm. The sick thing is you have time to contemplate the pain, before it starts, as you break your first shot from the sidearm.

Ugh.. the memory of it makes me wince.

You could also consider slings that loop through the loops you already have, but have side squeeze buckles on them.
It'd leave a dangly bit on your rifle when you removed the sling, but maybe that won't bother you, idk.
