    Think I found my new favorite sling. Thanks Canada!

    Okay so this just came in the mail today and after running some quick backyard ops I decided I'm going to order a few more. Ferro Concepts Slingster is what its called and they're made in Canada of all places.

    The sling feels really good -- not overly padded but just wide enough to be comfortable without being bulky at all. What I like most though is how easily and smooth the quick adjuster works and the pull tab is fast to locate with a nice rubberized loop. This sling also doesn't feel as "strappy" as some others do with a bunch of extra material everywhere. Very clean feeling. Will be replacing my Troy Industries and VTAC slings with these babies. Just a decent piece of kit I thought I'd share with you boys.

    Wasn't sure of the best way to take photos of a sling but here ya go...

            Weird, on the back of the logo tag on the actual sling it says Made In Canada.

                  Just an update, still running the Ferro Concepts Slingster and I love it. I have since purchased a few more for my other rifles. As mentioned before, the slide adjuster is real quick and easy and also noticed that this sling doesn't seem to twist as easily as some others (namely the V-Tac slings).

                  Something I should mention though...the exposed edges on the metal slide buckle will scratch the hell out of your receiver. See pic below. Do I care? Not one bit as my AR's are workhorses. But just thought I should point it out so if anyone is considering this particular sling and mounts it the same way I do. Managed to score a limited edition Multicam Black one too.

                    Thats a proper looking sling in that black. In terms of the buckle, why not just put some electric tape around it. I know it really doesn't matter, but could save the receiver and be kinda quiet at the same time.

                      T-Rex Arms sell them. It appears they currently have ranger green and multicam in stock. They will email you if you want the other colors, when they get them in stock again - https://www.trex-arms.com/store/ferr...pts-slingster/
