Have you ever used an elastic sling?  You may want to try it before you buy it.  After using bungee cord slings, and other single points, I came to the conclusion that they were all useless for my purposes.  It wasn't until the ASP Single Point Sling came out that I was willing to use any single point for duty use.  

I'm not saying that there aren't people who like bungee cords, but it serves no valid purpose  with what I do.  I've had to transition before, and when Murphy rears his ugly head, the last thing I need is something that is elastic bouncing around.

Its pretty much bomb proof, I've been doing some evil torture testing to it and haven't got it to fail yet...

Check with CSM gear for a single point sling. Bungee is a good thing as long as it is on one side of the fastener not both.  With the CSM SPS, the weight of the rifle is held with the nylon strap not the bungee, so the bungee doesn't stretch out.

And besides all CSM gear is made in the USA and That's gotta be worth something!

I was looking at the Blue Force sling which allows you to switch between one, two, and three point sling all in one nice package. How easy is it switch between "points"?

Does the ASP require a sling adapter, not sure what the part is calles but I think you use a spanner wrench to take it off

There are several different ways to mount it.
