My little lady is going to make me a paracord sling for my 590A1 and we would love to see some that are on tac shotgun builds, thanks.

P.S. How do you size the length?

What do you mean by this? Do you mean how much cord do you allot? If that's the question it's approx 1 foot of cord, per inch of weave for a typical cobra weave. If you go double wide, you'd double the length.
 
Put your sling swivel on your gun.
Wear the thickest shirt/jacket you will use when slinging the SG.
Take a double length of paracord and run it between the swivels.
Adjust length until it feels comfortable. Knot to hold length.
Take swivels off of SG and stretch paracord/swivel combination out on a table.
Measure distance between swivels.
Add 1 ft for every inch of measured length.

Example:

I adjust sling so I get 36 inches of para-cord between swivels.
36 x 2 = 72 inches.
36 inches x 1 ft = 36 ft.

Total length required = 36 ft + 72 inches + wiggle room.
