    best sling option

    Am looking to get a good one to two point transitionable sling for my sbr. I have found the Vickers 221 so far and it seems to be getting good reviews, I am just trying to get all the options before I commit to one. Anyone recommend one other than the 221?

    I like the VTAC padded sling personally.

    Didn't know what it was so I looked it up, looks like a good sling, but 80 bucks??? I'm an old Viet Nam vet, USMC and I just use an old M-16 sling on QD swivels 2 bucks at the gun show, if I ever need to get "tactical" I use para cord, just like the old days. Sorry I couldn't help, us old guys are weird.

    When you say VTAC you mean the non 221 sling? isn't the 221 the only one of Vickers that is one/two point?

    The two most popular slings that get mentioned are VCAS and VTAC. They're not the same but both will accept either a BlueForceGear Burnsed socket or IWC triglide to make it convertible from 2 to single point.

    VCAS or VTAC on all of my rifles. All padded versions. Two point sling is your best option in most cases.

    I have a padded VCAS in Kryptek Typhon, I love it.

    I'm partial to the Magpul M3 sling myself- it can be quickly resized and/or reconfigured to a single-point sling. The VTAC looks nice, but I've never played with one.

    The BlueForceGear VCAS has better quality webbing than Magpul slings, IMHO. And once you try a padded VCAS, you'll never want anything else!
