Two questions:
A: any recommendations on a sling I should use for an StG44, I have read they used Kar98K slings but that leads me to my second question:
B: I have a Kar98K sling but I have NO idea how to do the stock, the front is obvious, but getting it through the stock is a whole different story.
Images and videos would be the most helpful, thanks!

It's for the K98, but after a few steps I found it very straight forward.

Ooooooh.... Thanks alot! I guess I don't have a Kar98k sling, the gun show had it labeled "Mauser" must be one of those Yugo repros or whatever.... It's way to wide.
