Benjamin Akela Single point sling solution
- Thread starter Toolmaker
- Start date
imo, bad idea to carry around with all that weight/pressure on the rail> barrel> action. Just asking for poi change or those threads you've been talking about don't need more pressure back and forth wear and tear from a swinging gun while walking thru the woods... Use the sling points provided thats what they're for.

The sling is mounted to the rear rail. Not the rail with the barrel grub screws. Seems to be eru stout there on the rear?

Its a KRAL and I think it should be fine.
I would wrap around here though. Worry about that single Picatinny buckling that's all. Or connect to rear sling stud.

That's a good option, thanks. It seems pretty stout up there, and the rifle doesn't weigh much. I thought it would be fine

Toolmaker I tried that with a puncher breaker but after a couple of hrs. walking around in the woods my neck couldn't take it (pain). But I'm probably twice your age lol , I modified a chest harness & a mag pull bracket 
the harness goes over both shoulders (to distribute the weight) & the bracket lets the gun hang horiz.
