I have an M&P15T and just ordered http://www.aimsurplus.com/acatalog/Midwest_Ind._QD_Rail_Sling_Adaptor.html
There are so many choices. I would prefer " MADE IN THE USA".
TIA!

Good tutorial on slings found here:

I do plan on trying one of the Vickers slings. I have also had good luck with our own (GT Member) RMTactical's slings.

I prefer two point. 3 point hang you up and single point hit you in the jimmy.

Big +1 for Rocky Mountain Tactical
The 2 point adjustable is a very nice piece of kit and the price is very competitive

What type of applications are you looking to use the sling for? Do you have a preference? Do you know the differences between all the different sling styles?

I'm with RMTactical, without knowing the purpose I would hesitate to recommend.
However, in several years of daily crawling in and out of vehicles, clearing buildings, climbing ladders, etc while wearing an M4, I prefer a 2 pt (we are issued 3 pt slings), the quick-adjustable type from Vickers. RM has some good designs but I have not seen any in person yet.

I ordered a 2 pt from Rocky Mountain Tactical.
I like the sigle point slings.
I have a Blue Force single point with HK style hook. Vltor sling loop.

I ordered a 2 pt from Rocky Mountain Tactical.
Let us know how you like it. I have 3 and am happy.

I have RMT's 3 point (also functions as a 1 or 2 pt) and highly recommend it. It can be configured just about any way you can imagine, so as your preferences change, you dont have to buy a new sling.
