I’m getting deployed to Kosovo in a few months and still have a couple things I need to buy. One of the main things I want to pick up is a tactical sling. Since I haven’t bought onebefore, I’m just looking for advice from someone who has used it so hopefully you can help me out.
For a sling I’m looking at the Blackhawk swift sling. Anybody used one, how well do they work? Are there any others that I should look at? I have seen the eagle, and cqb solutions, but wonder if there are too many plastic clips to break or make noise.
Right now we have fixed stock M16’s, but there is a very small chance we may get M4’s at some point. Can the fixed stock model be adapted to be used with the collapsible stock of the M4? Any other slings that will switch between the two easily?
