Is this a good sling? The only thing that seems to trouble me is the attachment point. Wouldn't hooking the sling onto the sight add pressure to the cause erradic(sp?) accuracy?

Look at the video too. Makes it seem pretty versatile.

you can make your own for about $8...look on arfcom in the diy section.

+1, however I believe you're referring to the post in the sling section...I built mine following these instructions for under $10:

Mine is exactly like the one pictured in the link except that I used black webbing.

if you're worried about undue presure on the barrel (don't unless you've got a super duper FF high speed low drag long range shooter) because of the FSP attachment, just put it on the sling loop which is part of the FSP anyway. Sorry if that seemed like the obvious solution If you want a bit of an extension for that use a small length of 550 cord and create a loop off of the sling loop. If you've got free float rails, just get a sling mount attachment and go with that.

I use the 550 loop so that I can attach my slings with the HK snap hooks that I put on them. Then again I use old M60 padded slings. Maybe not the tacticoolest but they sure are comfortable and long enough

Get a troy with the sling plate or another style single point with the quick disconnect they are awsome

I love my Rocky Mountain Tactical sling.

I just read this thread about a hour ago and have been to Ace and back and built the sling. It was pretty simple, Just pay attention to the pictures. I am really happy with it, I can't see any difference in it and others just like it on the web that sell from $25 and up.

here is a pic of the sling after being installed
