Yeah, that nonsense started in '07. Pretty idiotic, given how much like a competition course of fire Table 1A is. However...
From MCO 3574.2K, pg 3-3: "The rifle sling will be adjusted to the parade configuration for web slings. For three-point slings, the sling must be worn in its standard three-point configuration or hanging free from the body. Three-point sling body loop is not authorized."
Someone with half a brain knows that you can adjust a 3-point snug enough to provide support in the offhand, and because they don't specifically define "standard configuration" to say that you cannot do so, all you have to do is put on your Brig Lawyer hat, and be prepared to Request Mast if you run into opposition. If it's not in [angels sing] The Order [/angels sing]
Also, I've seen it successfully argued that the adjustable 1-point, being not mentioned in the least, and therefore not being specifically forbidden...is therefore authorized (we ain't the Red Army, where unless it's authorized, it's forbidden). You can snug that up too.
This stuff affects pros/cons, FitReps, and promotion, so game the game. Do stuff the hard way in practice, so you know you can do it that way, but when the rubber meets the road....give yourself every advantage you can within the boundaries defined by the precious freakin' Marine Corps Order governing the Marksmanship Program.
I.e., cheat your ass off.
