AR Slings

I have a RRA Coyote Carbine, and wondered which sling would work the best. There seems to be lots of AR sling options, and some requiring aftermarket sling attachments. What are eveeyones favorites and do they require the sling attachment?

Thanks
 
I really like the Claw. It is on all my hunting guns that I pack any distance. It comes in a variety of clolors and camo patterns as well. This one I had to remove the end swivel and just replaced it with a quick connect to attach to the VLTOR stock. Five minutes with a seam ripper and the wife's sewing machine revised the sling so I could use it with this stock.

You can do anything with duct tape

I literally just bought a UTG sling from Amazon.com and received it yesterday. I need to tape up the metal buckles so they don't rattle, but otherwise I was pretty impressed. I only bought it because I needed the extra $10 for free shipping and I've been wanting to get a different sling for a while. For the price, I'm pretty impressed so far.

EDIT: Just to clarify, this sling is meant for airsoft guns, but so far it seems to work just fine for the real thing. It's secure and strong enough that I'm not worried about it. I'll report back if I have any issues in the woods with it.

I really like the Blackhawk Swift sling. It is a 3pt sling and there are not any special requirements. Plus you don't have any grips or magazines sticking you in the back.
 
I have to go with the Outlaw sling. It's the most comfortable one I've found for hunting and you have both hands free to carry other things without the chance of your gun slipping off your shoulder. It sets up and carries like a back pack and uses your standard sling swivels. They are quick release so I ordered another set of the releases so I can use it on both my rifles.

I was impressed with this sling on my other hunting rifles, but on the AR it excels due to the AR's better balance point.



How do you attach that to your AR? I like the concept of this sling but dont know how it would mount. Thanks

I had model1sales mount a stud on the free float tube and then I bought this adapter (the one on the left) for the back: http://www.model1sales.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=555

Once you have those, the safari sling connets to the AR just like a normal rifle..

Here are some pics to illustrate:
