I can't remember the last time a COMPLETE project was this slow in getting done. I'm guessing because so much stuff was custom ordered/custom made.
And speaking of which... my Vickers BFG sling finally arrived today!
HK clips are going the way of the dodo bird apparently, so I decided to go with MASH hooks for the first time. I all honesty, the factory mounting points on the CZ are really designed for an OLD school web sling. There's a nominal concession at the top for HK clips (or now, MASH hooks) - LAPG used to make a really GOOD sling with HK clips that I think would fit better (I have one in FDE on my Spikes 'Snowflake' build), but alas... they're out of them these days.
Because of the extra weight of this piece, I'm going to appreciate the Vickers padding in the long run, but these MASH hooks will take some getting used to. I suspect both mounting points and the hooks will grind a fair bit off of each other in time...
NONETHELESS... I'm assembled now, and hitting the range with a few friends next Monday.
Thing is, with it slung, I feel like this oughta be playing!
