Hello,

I just bought a rifle yesterday, and I want to put a sling on it, so I can wear it on my back. The problem is, it didn't come with one and I see no places to put one. I am thinking of using an old guitar sling that I still have, to save me some cash.

Has anyone ever done this, or have any experience?

Here is a picture of the rifle, if needed:

Try getting a barrel band after measuring your barrel OD and for the back one, just drill a hole for the back stud. Or just get the Gamo gun buddy sling (or whatever it's called) that requires no drilling.

Thank you, I'll look into the gamo gun buddy sling.

Popeye,
I was writing a post and when I went to launch it...Mike had said it all. Gamo gun buddy is the down and dirty way.
Good luck.

Thank You, guys. I have that issue resolved. Now onto making a thread about ways to properly dissemble a spring break-barrel air rifle, and then how to paint the stock.

that's the easy part, usually just 3 or 4 screws
