I'd say that's fairly important!On a side note. Adjust sling long enough you can carry it on your neck and still shoot.

Looking closer, it appears those are the same size as my QD swivels which won't allow the hook (specifically the ring the hook is attached to) to pass through and therefore I cannot mount it as necessary. I'll either have to find an even bigger QD swivel or else I'm looking at buying a new sling.
It's the width of the ring that stops it from working. It is possible I could crush the ring down to make it fit but that's certainly not ideal.How close is it to fitting thru, think 1.5" will work?

AK slings are short and typically you can really only adjust it to hang off your neck.I'd say that's fairly important!
Nope. Would with a Russian sling like the one on my AR. Not the romy sling.How close is it to fitting thru, think 1.5" will work?

It feeds through when sideways....

It isn't uncommon to have the ak hang off your neck or just not use the sling for anything other than carrying the rifle.Well good news and bad news. Good news is Knebel was right. It fed through with some effort turning sideways. Bad news is Boboclown is also right. This sling is too short to effectively use unless I want it hanging off my neck. I'm imagining a small extension between the qd and the sling itself - not sure if something like this is made or if people use paracord OR ditch the idea and move to another sling.....
OK I see your problem, you do not know how to properly install a traditional AK sling (you have it backwards and are feeding the triglide incorrectly). Watch this video and at the 1:10 minute mark install a QD swivel and plug it in the provided socket.
