    A BFG Universal Wire Loop works pretty well there. Wrap it around the barrel where the FN/Colt M4 side sling mount goes and live happily ever after. When done right, you can rotate it under the FSB...

    My Dad bought a 22/45 very early on - in the first or second year they were released, I'm pretty sure.
