    LAV might take offense to that!

    I just got my padded VCAS which, incidentally, doesn't quite look like the sling on the instructions sheet:

    - no Fastex clip anywhere (!?)
    - long strap section at the front of the padding with two buckles.
    - short strap section at the stock end of the padded section with two buckles.
    - overall it's about a foot longer than I expected it to be, not counting the extra 6" of strap at the front of the padded section that flops free after I get everything adjusted to what I believe is correct. I don't know if I have something adjusted wrong?

    I need to find some photos of this thing in use.

    -Standard VCAS(with multiple revisions)
    -Cobra VCAS variant
    -QD VCAS variant
    -Victory VCAS series
    -Padded VCAS
    -SAW VCAS
    -M240 VCAS (these last two will probably be rolled into one version)
    -Sniper VCAS (prototype only)

    How do you guys like the version which have the push-button QD sling? That's the first one I purchased but it drove me crazy because it would always twist on me.

    I've had mine twist on me a couple of times but I still prefer the QD version.

    I plug into my LaRue rail so it keeps the sling in about a 45 degree rotation, for my stock end I still run it through and haven't tried using a QD rear attachment yet.

    You got pretty close, bro. In addition to your very complete list, there is a Vickers medic version currently released only in Canada and a dedicated AK version that only Grant has. Also, we have made another half dozen or so uncatalogued variants for units that had special requirements.

    Can you tell us about the medic version and if it will be released here? Thanks.
