Question numb from sling

don't want to start a new thread in the medic since it's somehow sling related so here goes:

How long is the max time for the left (gloved) hand to stay in position with the sling ($10 Garand sling) on?

I was dry-firing in different positions. When I got to prone, I got too 'obsessed' with the prep for a rattle battle and spent either 35min or 1 hour+ in position. Since then and for the last 12 hours, the left hand has been having that numb, tingling sensation like when your hand recovers after being asleep. I sure hope the nerve cells are not permanently giving up after being deprived from O2 and nutrients.

Also, if I may ask, how long did it take for you to get your master/high master classification? Rick, Gene, Peregrinon or anyone else?
