| just ordered an noveske n4 upper. i'm not going to add railed hg's. my lower is wearing a sully stock and i have a wilson combat flashlight mount for the fsb with a vltor ring and surefire light. what is the best sling for this situation? sully at one end and standard hg's. |

What is the intended purpose of the rifle and what do you want the sling to do? Just describing the components only helps to determine mounting options. Are you going to do a lot of CQB stuff? Getting in and out of vehicles? Long walks/patrols/stalks with the rifle? Lefty? Do you want to use the sling as a shooting aid? |

I would go with one of the adjustable two points. Vickers VTAC or Gear Sector GS-2P. Taking a hasty sling probably won't be an issue in a class, and if you have time to take one in an HD situation that might be a little odd. The two point will let you secure the weapon to the side or in patrol carry, and the adjustment will let you set how loose you want it. Personally I run the GS-2P. If you wanted to go with an IDF type two point there are lots of people that use that as well. They are much cheaper, but that like everything else comes at a price. |
He covered it, the current crop of 2 point slings is the best way to go. |
 +1 I agree with the two point slings mentioned. I prefer the Blue Force Gear Vickers VCAS two point sling because I prefer the thicker and slightly stiffer webbing material very similar to the military issue slings. To me it's easier to control the sling with the support hand while shooting. Blue Force Gear VCAS slings are available in two models, the standard model without swivels (but swivels could be added like in my pic) and with the built in heavy duty push button quick release swivels model. |
