Hi,
I was trying to do some research regarding slings for shotguns, but most of the information came up for the AR15 platform. My question then is there a different approach to slings when it comes to shotguns? I own a Mossberg 500 and I was thinking of getting a 2-pt sling. I just want to get a USGI OD 1.25" sling but I came across more advanced slings that have quick adjust. Also the attachment points for slings are numerous. I was thinking of the traditional magazine cap swivel stud and a rear stud 2" from the end of the butt stock. But then came up sling plates and ones that can be at the receiver/butt stock junction or ones that have velcro straps that secure the rear sling to the butt stock. I also came across attachment points at the receiver where the trigger housing pin is.
So many options.. any recommendations?
