Slings, my best options?

[KandyRedCoi]

i heard shipment for the GI Slings from Appleseed may take some time, and i really dont want to push it til the last minute

so what other alternatives would i have? something over the counter and that wouldnt need any "modifications"

i would need 3, in black, preferably NYLON to go on:

1 - Ruger 10/22 with Archangel Target Stock

1 - Remington 597 (box stock) i still need to mount a stud to this one

1 - Mossberg tactical 22

any info would be greatly appreciated

THANK YOU!

Works for me...

most surplus stores have basically the same sling that AS sells. Although the AS slings I got look to be better quality than the surplus stores cheap chinese copies.

Also, ask your Shoot Boss if there will be extras there

Dont get the USGI carbine get the Garand one

The GI Sling is nice because of the price and if all you need is something to make carrying it on your shoulder easier it does the job well. However, when you get into actual running and gunning it is not all that flexible.

I found that when rigged for side carry the Vickers Padded Adjustable 2-Point Sling made by both 5.11 Tactical and Blue Force Gear to be the best in breed. Especially the padded model. It can be adjusted very quickly on the fly while you are running and gunning. Plus, unlike single point slings you won't accidentally turn yourself into a eunuch.

Go with a cotton sling. I went to an Appleseed this past weekend and bought one from my shoot boss. My nylon tactical (Uncle Mike's?) sling started to "stretch" under the heat of the sun no matter how often I adjusted it.

yea i was really looking into a sling strictly for appleseed as i have and will get more tactical slings for other purposes like run n gun etc.

thanks

Viking tactics sling is the only sling i will ever use.

+1 for versatility and ease of use. I won't post it again for fear of the dupe trolls, but look them up on YouTube. Viking Tactics or VTAC sling should do the trick there.

The Vickers sling is an awesome sling for what it was made for. That was not Appleseed. Get a GI sling, it is the best for Appleseed Period. Since this is the Appleseed forum and Not the mall ninja forum I am guessing what we should be looking at is what works at an Appleseed not what looks cool with my katana machete. Just saying.
