the *clone/not-clone/kinda-clone* thing has been covered already so...
as for the rear sling attachment point the only one that makes sense is the Noveske QD. i've used almost every design i can think of and that is the only one that gives me everything i want and nothing i don't. you plug in a QD swivel to the rear and run whatever sling you want.
i've seen a lot of guys come in and buy the MagPul sling and plate then return sooner or later to replace one or both. (lots of BAD levers suffer the same fate)
the QD socket adapters that give you one on each side are just larger than need be. they're not as *ambi* friendly in an *on the fly* transition.
i don't run slings attached to the rear of the receiver any more but i still install the Noveske plate for that *if i want to* moment.
Viking sling FTW!!
