I was looking at a strap, but personally, rather not have my hand restrained to the forend like that. The Magpul setup, fits perfectly around my hand, and is kind of usable shooting with my weak hand (right hand as support). Good position for the light, so I’m happy with it. The TAC-14 doesn’t have a stud on the grip, so either add one (not a fan of) or go with a sling adapter. Leaning towards the latter... but got to think it through. With the TacStar sidesaddle, the plate comes back to like 1/4” to 3/8” from the edge of the receiver, at the point the QD mount will be located. From what I saw online, it seems that the socket for the mount favors the receiver side. Probably going to be an issue there. Sling will be a Magpul, either MS3 or MS4. I prefer the QD mounts, so it would be a MS4, and possibly modifying the sidesaddle plate to fit (shouldn’t be hard, just Dremel a relief around the socket). Other option would be a MS3, then a Midwest Industries plate, which accepts HK clips (like 90% sure the Magpul para-clips work with it). That would be no modification, since it is inline with the plate.
