What kind of experience have you had using Vickers Blueforce slings?

I see one model has been issued with the M27 automatic rifle.

I have recently been using an Echo93 SBS which I really like.

I was just curious what everyone thought about Blueforce.

I run them on everything. They are awesome. Get a padded one if you are running a PC

Very good sling, that and the Proctor are my favorites.

They're all I use. Mostly the padded version. Awesome slings.

Yup, good to go.
I like the adjust-on-the-fly, for switching shoulders and whatnot

GTG, use them on my hunting AR's and HD Ar's (kinda the same rifles.)

Don't use much else though a couple have similar other branded slings.

Love ‘em. Been using ‘em for a little over a decade now.

They're phenomenal and the only sling I've used personally or professionally for almost a decade now. I've tried MANY, before this I was in love with the VTAC, but I sold every single one when I started using the BFG VCAS. Won't even look at another sling for carbine use anymore.

I've always like the VCAS design but went with the Magpul MS4. I took a padded MS1 and converted it to an MS4 so I can use as a 1-point and 2-point sling. I really like the thin padding in the MS1 sling. I recently bought a SLY tactical 1-2 point sling and it is very nice two, has a t-handle that is similar to the VCAS tab. I have not had a chance to run it yet but I went unpadded for my 10.5" pistol.

I've been using BFG slings since they first rolled out their contractor kits but the Vickers 221 is my current fav.

Vickers 221 is awesome.

Thothing else comes close! Vickers slings are the best! I have padded models on all my rifles.

Vickers Padded slings are my favorite. Ferro Slingster is a distant 2nd.

If I need a sling and it’s not for a clone it gets a VCAS.

Vickers is great, but I like my new Ferro Slingster better.

Well made with quality hardware and the smoothest / easiest one hand adjustment of any sling I’ve tried.

Can we just rename this "VICKERS SLING THREAD" and tack it to the top and then forbid further threads about the BFT Vickers sling?

if you're doing SOF or USMC or Army Airborne clones, you might as well just start getting VCAS's for them.

How much should they cost second hand?

Got one sitting next to me on my work rifle right now lol.  I do prefer the proctor sling in some ways for a lighter rifle.  VCAS is good to go tho as everyone else has mentioned.

I just got a padded Vickers sling and mounted it with QD swivels. Damn I love this thing! I haven't shot it, but have been wearing it around the house and I'm very happy with it.

Vickers is probably my favorite sling

Padded BFG Vickers or magpul is the only thing I will spend my money on. Got a BFG as a gift and it changed everything. A sling is no longer something I cheap out on.
