I’m a fan of the Magpul 17:06 convertible. Setting up an AR pistol now though anybody have any suggestions for something shorter? Thinking about just cutting down a mag pull sling but if anyone has any recommendations, I would love to hear it. Thanks.
Good video but, it would been nice if you demonstrated all you talked about with an AR to show us better. BUT, I guess there are a lot of videos available to watch about slings. Just sayin'.
I just hard to beat the M1907 lether sling
It's always a good day when a you tube justifies your purchase! 😂
Seriosuly though, I just happened upon the Vickers adjustable sling and thought it looked simple to understand, easy to set up and durable. I have not been disappointed. I only have one, but its easy to swap to my differnt rifles with the QD points.
There's a learning curve with a sling though….and I'm still ont he uphill part of the curve it would appear. Lmao😅
Vickers was my first sling. Second was a magpul. Might get another vickers to replace the magpul.
“We didn’t have any better options” then immediately “we were too stupid…”
You’re a moron. Made it to 1:39. You will die in SHTF in my hood.
I've never been a soldier, I have a sling on every one of my long guns.
It is stupid not to. Kinda like not having a holster for your sidearm.
Thanks
I've found that 1, 2 and even 3 point slings have their place. The 2 point is the most universal IMO though.
Viking Tac padded, 12 years of use as a grunt. Cinch it down, loosen it up east
I'm a big Frank Proctor sling guy. My second choice is Lary Vickers / Blue Force sling. Everything else is a third / last choice.
If you don't like slings, you're an idiot.
2-point set up for support.
I prefer a classic 10 point sling
Slings are for chow lines
This was an EXCELLENT video. I actually learned something. Thanks. 👍

I got a single point sling from temu 15$… Works like all the overpriced slings everybody buys !
"Without a rifle sling you are a slave to your rifle"
The blueforce gear Vickers sling is by far my favorite sling!
Waiting for my MS4 sling from Magpul to arrive in the mail.
you have a grip that looks like it has the female connection on the back of the grip. what grip is it or is it a special attachment?
Sound off if you're old enough to have added duct tape to your fixed stock, so you could attach paracord to the stock and front site, so you could sling your rifle from the top. Wait, wait, wait….nevermind….ummm….sound off if you're old enough to have had fixed stocks and front site posts (let's not get ahead of ourselves, LOL).
I only sling my hunting rifles for the ease of hauling everything out to sit in the stand….
Colt’s Nylon web sling served me well for 6 years with paracord attachments and a little bit of duck tape while in service , as a civilian been using it for 39 years , no failures to date .💪🏼💪🏼
Why does this channel only have 140k subscribers?! I learn something every video and they are not boring about it. Tell your friends because they deserve more followers imo.
I have multiple adjustable two point slings, but honestly ths sling i keep going back to is the old canvas us gi sling (m1 garand sling). Its just more practical and comfortable for range use.
this was totally well said !! the advice was dead on. for me, after having spent 20 yrs in the Marines infantry and going through every option we could imagine, i totally agree about the user preference.. 2 yrs ago i received griffin Arm Switch Hitter Convertible Sling – Ranger Green .. its been just awesome. and like u said at the end.. set up your kit !!! practice! keeping your sling in mind and finding what works.. this video is 100% dead on for advice! another great job AT3..now when u guys making ur own AT3 optics brand so we can try em out??? we need a red dot AT3 Brand or a 1×8 AT3 brand optic to try!
Let me rate these slings objectively…these are of course just my opinions 😂 nice.
Are 2 point adjustable slings with a bungie section not good?
