I've been using VTAC and VCAS slings for several years, and last year tried the Mission Ready "Sheriff of Baghdad" sling. They are all good in their own way and have their own advantages.
I recently tried Frank Proctor's sling and I've found it to be an effective take on the "minimalist" approach to gear.
1) lightweight, but the webbing isn't too thin
2) no tail to catch on your belt gear
3) mounts quickly and easily without the need for 2 x $15 QD swivels, or QD swivel mounts that add weight and cost
4) if you mount the front of your sling closer to the muzzle, as it mounts with a 550 para cord loop, your hand can get good purchase on the handguard since there is no QD socket
