What type of slings do our soldiers use? 1,2,3 point? I'd like a sling that allows me to sit my rifle across my chest like the soldiers do.

the overwhelming majority use the SpecOps 101 or 101CQB. A few guys are using the straps from thier two quart canteens. Wolf hooks are pretty common too, but there isnt a good place to put one on the new body armor. Then there is the tiny number of individuals with unique rigs like mine. A few of my favorites:

I had 550 cord and a carabiner that I hooked up to my single pt. mount, like a Wolf hook. This worked until I got my new body armor, then I went to what I have now which can be seen on pg 33 of he sandbox pics thread

My SL, he uses a SAW three point, hooked to the swivels backwards

An MP that has the part of a mamba that wraps around your body, threaded through a single pt. mount that wraps around the castle nut

a length of 550 cord from swivel to swivel

an eagle three point that has been cut and duct taped to fit
