Keeping your gun in a sling.Dear Editor, The M249 machine gun has an aluminum eyelet For the carrying sling t;o connect; to on the buttstock. But the sling hook is steel, which we've Found can sometimes break the weaker eyelet. Then you have nothing to connect the sling to. We have two solutions to that problem: * Connect the hook to the eyelet with a piece of 550 cord or something similar. If something breaks it will be the cord, not the eyelet. * Wrap duct tape duct tape n. A usually silver adhesive tape made of cloth mesh coated with a waterproof material, originally designed for sealing heating and air-conditioning ducts.
