I was browsing the net and ran into this: http://www.botachtactical.com/kzs.html.
I wonder if anyone has first hand experience or info on this as the package price seems to be very reasonable.
Thanks.

Thats looks very similar to Magpuls MS2 sling. Same concept at least. Someone modified a BFG two point sling into the same idea as well.

This is one of those cases where someone reverse-engineered something without any understanding of the real thing.

Yes, someone did (http://m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=33734). ;)
Much more to come on that as well as I have a few items inbound that will hopefully help me out there.

I've had a couple of sets for about two weeks (given to us for T/E). So far I've used it during range training as well as entry movement training. As far as adjustable sling experience, mine has been limited to the MS2 (I have two) and the VTac (I have three). My impressions are that the sling appears to be well made. The stitching looks good at about 8 stitches/inch (unknown what type of thread is used). The webbing is wider than the MS2, and is very comfortable to wear for longer periods.

The hardware used for the QR is the large button type (from Uncle Mike's, I believe). The reddish HA sling attachment/ajustment is KZ brand and looks clean in it's finish. The adjustment capability of the system is as smooth as my MS2's and VTac's. It fit's the "big boys" on my team as well as the "petite". I do like the way it adjusts. Maybe I need to re-fit my MS2 for my lefty ways to see if it's as easy as the KZ. The Vtac is by far the faster adjusting sling (in 2-point configuration).

As far as transitioning from one point to two point configuration, the KZ (for me ) is a little slower that the MS2 because of its QR system. The alligator type MS2 attachment is faster for me. But, I don't expect to do that in the middle of a gun fight anyway, so it has not been a concern.

I use both the KZ's and MS2's attached to a Tango Down PR-4 attachment as well as the KZ QR end plate on different rifles.

Thank you everybody for your input. I think I might get one for my 5.45 AR and see if it works for me.

I was stalking these... but its is the same price as the MS2 if not more...
I went with the V-Tac single point sling for 36.00 instead.... I like it so far and the qd feature is identical to the MS2 if I am not mistaken, which works very well... it came with 4 seperate attachment options which I like....
