    Ever.
    I had a similar moment of enlightenment when I purchased my padded VCAS w/ sewn-in QD. The sewn-in QD made the whole sling seem so much more low-profile and tidy. The standard padded VCAS is still a damn fine sling, but I'm going with sewn-in QD from now own.

    Can you pro and con this for me ? i will wait until you reply before I order.
    I wouldn't call the padded one "better" than the regular VCAS, but I do prefer the padded version. It really does come down to individual preferences. I like the added comfort of the padded version. Although if the sling was for an SBR/lighter carbine, I'd probably consider a non-padded version.

    Just wondering, I have cleaned house on the BFG Last Calls with these slings.
    Your guess is as good as mine. I'd like to know too. Grant does have some QD models in stock though.

    I'll thank you. It's a great concept. Just that much less redundant webbing to tape up. I too was disappointed that I couldn't find another one on the BFG web site.

    I'm good, I got the last one in FDE that Google could find. I cleaned house on the BFG Camo Green clearance and their Cobra Last Call.

    Edit to add: The padded VCAS with sewn in QD is the cat's meow. Shame they are not making them any longer.

    Grant, I had no idea but THANK YOU. I picked up a green one a while back when there was a big sale going on (at BCM?, your shop?, sheesh I can't remember). Anyhow, thanks for planting that suggestion.
    Oh no, not another lube thread! Read this first: Lubrication 101.

    Good to know, thanks! And good on you for suggesting a dedicated QD in the first place.

    DSG Arms has them in stock, however G&R pricing is better.
