Good Morning Everyone,

Regarding the Jungle Carbine, what the reasoning behind its sling setup (one swivel on the bottom, one on the right side)?

Why didn't they do two swivels on the bottom (as on prior Enfields)? Or both on the side? Also why was it placed on the right side instead of the left? It seems most other Carbines (K98icon, M39, K31icon, Carcano) put it on the left so the bolt wouldn't dig into the soldier's back.
