Possible A. Metallica?

Bought this from a local reptile store labelled as an Avic Avic. Does not look anything like my MM A. Avic. Would love help pinning species so I can inform the store about the two others they have.
Your MM is bound to have differing coloration than that of a sling of the same species. There really is no telling with pictures especially this one. Also I would replace the sponge with a water dish and give it a branch or some foliage to climb on. The sponge breeds bacteria and is pretty useless.
 
@Kodi this container was the one from the shop before I transferred it to its new enclosure.

The Avic Avic juvies they had there looked like soot balls, nothing like this one.
 
Let it molt a few times, I'm sure it will look like the others you saw. ;)
Avic. avic. slings look like that so no one can tell you it's not what it was sold as.
