I'm looking for ideas for a good rifle sling. I just ripped my second one and now it's very important I have one because my gun weighs in at about 12lbs loaded. I'm trying to find a quality, padded, two-point if possible. Anyone have any experience with good slings or something memorable to mention? Any help would be appreciated!

I received this with a rifle I purchased and I now have it on my l96, it has been through a few games and has held up pretty nicely.

I use a real steel quick cuff sling. http://www.tacticalintervention.com/modelm24usmilitary.html
^very similar to that.
They aren't cheap, but there isn't anything I hate more then a sling that is going to give and drop $500+ worth of equipment all over the ground.

That's pretty close to what I am looking for. Also, valid point. Thus far I have been lucky enough to catch every gun before it hits the ground, but I'm not even chancing it having spent 500 on this EBR and it's already broken my only sling!

I did a cobra braided sling. ( like the braclets that everyone wears just like 3ft longer.) it's not padded but its got the job done!:tup:

You could make one out of para cord, extremely tough and look very unique!

I haul a twelve pound gun with one of these.

I am more worried about the mount breaking than the strap by far.

All of the parts are metal, Libelle?

The fittings came with the gun, and they are metal of a sort. That strap is all plastic and nylon.

I'm kind of afraid of using plastic... but I will give it a shot either way. For $20 I can't go wrong if it's proven to work.
