Sling for Scorpion

[JLla84]

Hey guys, looking for a sling, I'm no operator and am just looking for a simple sling, maybe the Magpul sling... but am new to this all together and not sure how they mount, do i need anything special? or just order the sling and it will clip right to the mounts on the gun and good to go!?

Thanks for your help, there is so much out there and its very overwhelming, going right to the people that know best from having used them...

I often use a standard 2 point sling attached at front through a kyring and to factory back sling loop. it is fast and easy I like it. I use a Condor speedy sling 2 point. Fast to adjust and able to use it on many platforms.

So when I find a sling I like, do i need to also pick up attachment points?

[akuser47]

Depending on the type of sling in most cases yes. As there is not sling slot on the front end of the weapon in the beginning the scorpion came with a key ring on the front. Some don't like the key ring. It can be silenced with some duct tape. It works and everyone has key rings laying around somewhere. you can also use para cord to make a strong silent sling attachments.

find the sling you want, blue force vcas or magpul ms2 and then get you some QD mounts and you're good to go

I've tried so many slings over the years I've lost count and forgotten many of them.  In the end I always wind up with a two point sling of some kind.  I just got this one from Amazon, but haven't even put it on my carbine, yet, so I can't tell you how well it works.  At least I shouldn't need to put any key rings on it.

That looks perfect enough for my purposes....

Looks like those attachments should fit right onto the stock mounts!? and for $20, and amazon prime, can't go wrong....doesnt fit? free return... fits, win!

So update....

that Amazon 2 point sling came in with the HK style clips..... the clips do work with the existing mounts... whoever the sling itself is a mess to manipulate... it is definitely not ideal for quick adjustments and may end up returning it....

[akuser47]

I hate it when that happens, but I have done it many times myself. Keep us posted to what you end up with.

I really am just trying to avoid having to add $45 in QD mounts such as the Parker Mountain ones.... I can only run a sling at one of the match days i go to... the other ones requiring flagging and bagging (wahhhhh)

so im kind of trying to be cheap about it but at $20 from amazon prime, i suspected this could happen...

I should just get the magpul sling and order 2 hk clips...

I understand completely it took me a bit to settle on my condor speedy 2 point. That doesn't mean others will like it. So many don't like the key ring for front attachment, and some don't like paracord to do the same. You have to get what you know will please you, and function within your needs. So many choices it makes it tuff I went the cheapest route I could, because the scorpion has cost me so much in parts n accessories already. Plus I shoot a lot out of mine so ammo is more my priority now.

[JLla84]

Im to the point that I just may return this thing and forget it!

Are you guys mounting the rear on the left side or right side?

[akuser47]

I'm right handed so I mount my sling both front and rear to the scorpions left side so it can rest at my chest and with my sling can be pulled to ready fast enough for me. Are you in Ohio in or near Hancock county. I can meet you within reason that is LoL, and you can test my setup and see if you like it? You never know what you like until its slung and you test the pull to ready the gun.
