My carbine is a M-4 (16") with an A2 stock and standard handguards. I like the A2 because it give me a solid cheekweld. I'm 6'4" (5'-16") with a long neck and long arms so I have no problems with the A2's length. The standard handguards are much more comfortable in my hands than the rails. I'm looking for a good way to set up a two point for training class and other stuff.
My current thoughts are a Vickers Combat type sling but I'm struggling with the terminal connections. I know I can get a Burnsed plate from BLue Force and others that mounts between the butt stock and the receiver end. I already have a HK hook that mounts the same way. The front end is slightly more confusing...I've seen front sight tower mounts that are a short piece of pic rail on ones side and a sling loop on the other. There is the Mag pull UWL 3" and 6" Around the tower? over the Delta ring? and I'm sure there are other ways to do this.
What are your recommendations and the plusses or minuses given my current hardware configuration.
