Need Help With Yugo M48 Sling Rigging Please

[Devonai]

Hello all,

I recently purchased a Yugo M48 without a sling. I will eventually buy the proper sling for it, but for now I have all this nylon webbing lying around and I would like to make a field expedient sling. If you have a digital camera and a Mauser K98 or Yugo M48, would you please show me how the proper sling is supposed to attach to the buttstock? It seems to need an oiler like the M1 Carbine or a bar or something.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the picture.

It looks like there's a buckle keeping the sling from pulling through the slot, but what keeps the sling from sliding in the other direction (left to right when viewed from above)? Is there a keeper on the left side?

Gravity?

Yeah, there's really nothing.
