    I don't think that the brass 'dog-lead' hooks on that sling would last 10 minutes while in use as a Bren sling. I have to say that when we first got the SA80/L85 rifle I shunned the 'new' sling and used a Sterling sling as a better-for-me option. But realised a year or so later that the proper L85 sling was good and versatile too
