I'm using a single point sling on my scar just now which has not let me down and im intending to use with my new precious, but I here you loud and clear Diddy.One thing to think about spending a bit extra on is a decent sling; Blue Force VCAS, Ferro Slingster, Magpul etc. Don't trust keeping your £600 RIF safe on a £5 sling
Only time I take my hand of a rifle is for a quick transition to a pistol.
Out of curiosity, I see you've not attached a sling to the mauri supplied point on the stock tube. Is that a weak point to sling the rifle from?
