Hi all, 

I wonder if I can get some advice from experienced players here. I recently acquired a single point sling for use with my AGE (CM M4)either I am really short or the sling is just too long, I have tried to adjust it to the tightest and even then the barrel of my AEG is reaching my knees. Any fix for this i.e. using black nasty to secure excess webbing or is this just the curse of using cheap kit?

Any input would be highly welcome.

Where are you wanting it to hang? If it’s higher up then the sling may not be long enough for you to shoulder the gun. 

 
Can we see some pictures of the sling adjusted to its tightest, and how it looks when you've got the gun slung?

 
Knees sounds about right for a full length m4, where on the gun do you have it clipped?

 
Single point slings will hang low, if you want it right to your body when not in use try a 3 point sling.

Or a 2 point sling. You can shorten the strap on the 1 point sling, subject to the shouldering issues mentioned above. Also check where you are attaching it to the rifle. Maybe a lower attachment point on the rifle will bring it up.

May be a bit obvious but how about cut a bit off and sew the hook back on so it’s shorter ???

 
Like his gun, OP's really keeping us in long suspense.
