Mossberg 715T sling help

Hi,
Right now my wife has this.

(two point sling)

But she would like a sling like this

(single point sling)

What would I have to buy/do to get her set up for a single point?

There's really no attachment swivel on the 715, or a way to install one.
However, it can be done.
I purchased the Viking Tactics Single Point sling. As well as the various clips to attach it to a swivel, it has a wrap around 'cuff' (for lack of a better term) that the included hardware attaches.
If you unscrew the bolt holding the stock onto the gun you can then wrap the cuff around the stock tube, punch a hole in the cuff, put the bolt through it and tighten everything down.
Works like a charm....the only problem is that you have a permanent attachment (the sling itself still can detach from the cuff with the d hood. But you either have to set it up for right or left hand carry because, as I mentioned there is no swivel.
Hope you get my drift with this description.

I made one out of thick old coat hanger first cut and form to the size of where the bolt holds the stock then weld or solder ends together, a bit longer then needed bend extra over the ring shape and weld or solder it , now a bit of gun bluing on the ring will make it look nice then remove bolt holding stock in place slide the ring on, replace stock and bolt there you go .

Have fun dude that's what it's all about !!

Hmmm....
I have access to a Co2 laser maybe i will get something cut that will work... I will take it apart and get out the calipers, pencil and paper.
