Awesome quick and simple video! We are happy to hear you like our sling and that it made it into your lineup! One thing we want to add that we aren't sure if you were aware of but the elastic on the quick adjust is designed to act as a regulator preventing binding but also acts as a self-containing device to store the sling. We designed this feature so that for all vehicle operations end users wouldn't have to worry about getting their sling caught on anything inside their vehicle when exiting. You'll notice a small pull tab on the elastic, that's to gives you an easy hold when tucking the rear section of the sling. Thanks again for using our stuff, we are big fans of your holsters! Best, -Edgar

Forgot to mention that, it's a great feature! 🤙

My favorite sling is the ESD. I got it when it was first released and haven’t touched another sling since.

[@tenicorusa]

Great sling 👍

Blue force gear vickers sling has been my go to for long time.

[@samthepa]

My favorite sling is the Vickers combat applications 2-point sling. Haven't tried any others besides the standard AK sling.

[@toledoupsguy6064]

I might have to try that sling placement. What is it going to do for me compared to front of hand guard and rear of stock?

[@BweareK]

I was using Vickers slings (because it came with a free machine gun) but recently switched to Ferro Slingsters as they are easier on my baby-like skin.

[@JonConley]

My go-to has been the Ferro Concepts Slingster. The two-point sling is the best of both worlds; contained like the ESD, but offered as a padded, like the VTAC. Their single-point is also great for PCCs and SBRs. I run my sling similarly to Jeff, but looped through the stock with most setups. My only complaint is that the aluminum slider mechanism will gouge your receiver and gear unless you're clever with Elastic Belt Keepers (I have to use three, overlapping) to wrap it. If they used a high-density polymer body for the slider, instead, I think it would be the perfect design.

Thanks for the comment 🔥

[@philiplucky7170]

Great video thank you, i would also look at the new Kagwerks Sling.

[@tenicorusa]

We'll give it a try 👍

[@joshgoetz8879]

My favorite sling has been the Frank proctor way of the gun sling.

[@tenicorusa]

Great simple sling 👍

[@benjaminfish7602]

I've been using an ESD sling for over a year now and I really dig them. It does what I need it to do (hold the gun) and adds practically no weight.

[@tenicorusa]

It is a great sling, thanks for the comment. 👍

[@formerpilgrim4934]

My favorite sling has been then Magpul MS1, but after watching this I'm digging out the VTAC for another try. Getting old and need the padding!

[@tenicorusa]

VTAC is really hard to beat. Especially when it is set up and adjusted properly.

[@rustyshackleford4299]

Cain't hardly beat a good ol' canteen sling ...or can you? Great vidja, guy!

[@chrisb9478]

I like the Centrifuge Training sling because of the storage function

[@tenicorusa]

👍Cool

[@richardf9137]

Informative Review! Thanks

[@tenicorusa]

Thanks for watching!

[@bcm.riffle]

My favorite sling is the esd

[@tenicorusa]

Great choice 👍

[@oscarmike7980]

The ESD sling also has a keeper.

[@michaelkim4743]

Don’t have a sling/rifle yet. Maybe one day but just focusing on pistol training right now.

[@tenicorusa]

How is the pistol training going?

[@-motosync]

My favorite sling is the GBRS second best sling.

[@tenicorusa]

Nice 👍

[@brianabbate2409]

The tail on the blue force is a hazard in my opinion

[@Warped.Wizard]

The only sling I know about is slingin’ rocks across a pond. To be fair, that’s tough to beat.

[@tenicorusa]

😂How many skips are you getting across a pond on average?

[@Warped.Wizard]

@@tenicorusa well, it’s been a while, but I’d say I average about 7 skips. Even more if I’m alone. Less if my girlfriend is watching, haha.

[@MichaelLeopold1]

Informative

[@aaronritsig6396]

Blue Force Gear Vickers 2 to 1 sling, although I just use it as a 2 point.

[@tenicorusa]

Hard to beat a good two-point for most applications with a rifle. Thanks for your comment.

[@JusticeforPeanut-t6x]

I’ve only used BFG but they’re getting too pricey. I’m leaning towards ESD for simplicity. Viking Tac is so 90’s. Looking at their website you can tell the designs of their gear was born of 90’s peacekeeping era of Bosnia and Somalia.

[@richy224]

VTAC for the win!

[@tenicorusa]

VTAC is a great sling 👍

[@richy224]

The defense mechanisms with the sling pad is pretty slick too. Stores very nice.

[@fmxmyway]

Frank Proctor Way of The Gun Sling or Magpul MS1 Sling.

[@tenicorusa]

👍 Thanks for sharing

[@JamesNelson-199]

Magpul MS3

[@Six_One_Six]

Blue force vickers for me....any sling is better than no sling

[@jacobdotson5690]

Just put my second VTAC sling on another AR. I absolutely love them. Went thru a LOT of other cheaper options, and wasted money on all of them. It helps that Kyle Lamb is an American badass and if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me! Haha!!
