    I used a short length of paracord to make up a couple of small loops for a QD sling swivel to attach to. If doing it again, I'd remove the swivel and paracord it directly to the butt

    Sheet bend is best for flat webbing used when creating an anchor etc. What about the beautiful 'alpine butterfly'? :D
