[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What sling...

do you guys use with your M1A's? I am looking for recommendations and I am not married to any particular sling or style. I have a leather 1907 style on my Standard but I might try something different on my Scout.

What situation would you expect to use your M1A Scout Squad? Range plinking, zombie defense, tactical entry, hunting? There's many choices out there so it makes to get a sling designed for the primary purpose.

Uses will be primarily range plinking and hunting. But if the Zombies come....well you know!

In that case, I'd stick with a USGI web or nylon sling. They are light and easy to use. I prefer the USGI nylon weave sling as a general purpose sling. I like Specter Gear or Spec-Ops slings for other applications.

The G.I. nylon is durable. It stands up to extreme conditions. The negative is that it tends to slip when shouldered. The G.I. cotton sling, while less durable, doesn't seem to be as slick on when shouldered.
