What is your favorite 2-point AR sling? Why?
I'd like to be able to adjust the length to sling up for position shooting. |
|
VTAC Bungee. I like the springy action and you can still suck it up pretty tight.
|
|
Basic sturdy song is my choice. If I needed something as you state I would through on a vickers
|

I like the Redi-Mag 2.1 convertible.
Why? It's versatile, adjusts quickly and easily for comfortable 2 point (or 1 point if you desire) carry and near instant adjustment for fire, and it attaches/detaches quickly and easily with no special hardware or attach points. It just uses the standard sling loops on the front and the slots on your stock. Oh, and it makes for a very comfortable carry. I'd be hard pressed to come up with a negative....some might prefer a padded version, I guess. All at a great price. I know, sounds like a commercial, but I love the thing. Oh, and customer service is fantastic. The guy who designed it saw my post about it a couple weeks ago and said they had improved the stock side attachment buckle and that I should email them through their website. Four days later I had the new improved part at my doorstep. That's service. |

I almost Fent on that sling but noticed somewhere that it doesn't fit magpul stocks and I love my CTR. what stock do you run?

|
Padded VCAS from Blue Force Gear.
Why? Simple operation, easily adjustable - a material tab comes off the sling, you pull forward or back depending on how you want it adjusted, padding is nice if you are letting your rifle hang a good bit, quality construction/material, great customer service from Blue Force.....and most importantly it just flat out works well for me. |

If so, the original stock connection point was very tight on my CTR. The part that they sent me is the updated piece for the stock end....fits easily and holds well. I run CTR and STR stocks. |

VTAC PADDED, NO BUNGEE FOR ME. Why? Look at the videos on you tube.

My favorite 2 point AR sling that is quick adjustable and does not loosen for shooting sling support is my LaRue Tactical 2 point Padded sling.
This particular LaRue sling are an exclusive design VTAC made for them by Viking Tactics, except the LaRue version have included heavy duty push button swivels (front are sewn-in) and have front side quick release buckles. These slings are also great for carrying while hiking, running, and climbing, it always stays very snug. http://www.laruetactical.com/larue-tactical-padded-sling |

For a true shooting sling I prefer the clawless leather Brownells Latigo. It is also very beautiful.
For a carry sling that can double as an easily adjustable shooting sling I like the Magpul M3 or M4, depending on the kind of attachments used. |

AGAIN, VTAC why? watch the videos on youtube it's better to see than to read.

Magpul MS1 does everything I need a sling to do at an affordable price.

Proctor Sling from Way of the Gun. Super simple. Paracord atachments simple, easy to adjust. Very resonable
Proctor Sling |

Padded VCAS. Had this sling for years through deployment and countless training exercises. One of the best purchases I have ever made.
|
|
I've used both Vickers slings and padded VTACs, both of them work well.

another VCAS user here.
simple design and very easy to use. the padded version its a pleasure to use for a long period. |
|
|
I have a vtac padded and a magpul ms4, I like the ms4 a little better, but both are too notch

The Viking Tactics Padded Sling was designed with the same great features as the original Viking Tactics Sling, but with added comfort for carrying heavier firearms. I like it because if you master this sling it's beneficial to the Tactical Environment. It took me all but 15 minutes to master it. There are videos that show the basics maneuvers, but there are a few that were not shown in any of the videos and is kept secret by me. Yes, if I showed you I would have to, well you know.....

VTAC Mk2
Why? easy to adjust, large adjustment range, you can tighten it up very tight. Non padded VCAS is second on the list. |
|
Blue Force Gear VCAS. I have the Proctor sling and a Gear Dynamics Accelerator sling too. I've found the Blue Force Gear VCAS to be best for me, but the other two are great as well.

I've gotten to where I'm either using a standard issue black silent sling or a Vicker's sling. I was thankful enough to be issued a coyote tan Vicker's sling when I was in the Army, along with the rest of my unit, still use that sling to this day. Love it

I like my Sheriff of Baghdad sling. I find it easier to use than the other slings I have.

Another vote for the BFG Vickers sling with padding. Those things are amazing. I am a nobody who hasn't tried a lot of slings. My buddy who was in the 75th Rangers liked them but he is a Troy padded guy.

Savvy Sniper has not been mentioned. This is what I'm using right now - like it a lot.
