Default Moving a Sling mount

I'm interested in trying a single point sling that can be quickly redeployed as a two point if desired. My current sling mount is at the end of my stock, and I want to put a mount close to the receiver... What are my options?

Dont mean to break any rules so just remove/modify if need be

I saw a new mount by Echo Nine Three on Travis Haleys "blog?"
They make several, but this one is made for HK or mash hooks and is a small plate that fits between the PG & reciever.

Ive also noticed multiple recent reviews on various slings with a connector "disc/tab" inline where you can unhook the front connector of the sling (in 2 pt configuration) and just hook that to the disc/tab near the back of it to make a quick conversion into a 1 pt sling

I ran an E93 sling mount for a while, they work quite well.

Ok, you got me...

I was gonna try running an adaptable single point sling based on Travis' AK vid. I am thinking that his sling was a Magpul MS3, but I'm not sure. I do know that the sling in question supposedly does not work well with the forward sling mount on the AK- which means a rail mount... Not real sure if I would want to go for that and moving the rear mount *shrugs*

Yeah, the MS3s clip doesn't work well at all with the AKs forward sling mount because the clip is too big.

That's what I have read... I am guessing the MS2 is the same way. I may look for another option

Actually, I believe the MS2 uses a different clip, so it may work. I don't have any 1st hand experience with the MS2 so I am not 100% sure, but I believe this is the case.

Whatever sling Haley uses in Adaptive Kalash, it doesn't appear that he has a unusual forward sling mount... And the sling looks like the MS series sling- it probably is the 2
