I'm trying to get used to a 3-point sling on my Operator.

I'm pretty used to a standard rifle sling though.

I use the VTAC heavy sling and if I want to go two point I have the two point conversion toggle that works awesome.

Troy single point.....3 or 4 Spec Ops slings.........anyone using a Magpul sling??? I was checking one out at last gunshow but decided not to flip the $$$ for it...was a good looking rig though...

I have the Magpul MS2. It's a decent sling, although I'd like to try some of the cheaper versions (ie: VTAC) as I'm not sure the MS2 is 100% worth the extra $$$.

Major benefit of the MS2 is the soft material the sling is made out of. While it sucks that it snags on velcro and then looks all "hairy", it is very comfortable. It doesn't pull and dig into your neck. I do feel that the metal attachment pieces could be upgraded. They haven't failed me, but they don't feel like the sturdiest parts that could have been used.

I don't have any function complaints. I mainly use the single point attachement, but switching to the double is simple and fast. I have to use a cheap, hard, nylon three-point at work and I hate it! I refuse to wear it "properly" and usually adjust it to be used as a two-point. If my single-point preference were to ever "wobble" or "flop around" too much, I think I would invest in something similar to the TAG Weapon Catch found HERE and HERE.

The 3-point I have is a Condor I believe.

Been practicing around the house but it isn't second nature yet, like it is with a standard 2-point.

Sheesh! I use vtac enhanced on all mine...but I still  get em tangled up...so all six are on the shelf <laughs>  Wash

I think I would get even more confused if I used a three point.

[planeflyer21]

3-point is basically a longer 2-point, allowing the carrier/shooter to use their own body as the third support point for the rifle.

Check 'em out on youtube.  Hopefully it is just practice I'm lacking.  <laughs>
