Anyone use one? Does it interfere with the charging handle on a STG?

I have one and I have had problems with using the charging handle. My biggest tip is to point the rifle down towards the ground, lift it up to your arm pit, and that gives you enough free slack to charge the handle if need be.

Thanks, I'll try that.

I also tried looping the sling under the barrel...this keeps it out of the way of the charging handle. I'm going to keep trying different things to get this to work smoothly.

If you're toying around with slings, may I suggest Urban ERT?

Best slings I've used, have one on all of my long guns. Ordered one for my AXR which should be here shortly. (The sling, not the AXR. AXR is delayed 'till who knows when.)
