Been tasked with picking new slings for our M4's. Need some suggestions. We have Blackhawks right now and have just worn out. Each person will get to pick if they want a 3-point or single point sling and I have to pick the brand. No criteria has been specified other than nylon. For 3-point... all weapons have side mount slings on the front and can be added to the rear if necessary if the sling does not fit the existing slots on the butt. Single point... I'll have to install the adapter that fits on the back of the receiver.

The reason for asking is I have to show why I choose these slings other than "I just thought..." I need input and your info may be used to justify "why". Especially if cost is a little high.

So... tell me some options/opinions.

Have a look at the new MagPul Sling. I want one since my M4 is currently slingless.

Me too. It's pretty badass. I may have to wait til it comes out before I get sling. Although it looks like you have to change the plate you were talking about that holds the takedown pin - spring & detent in place.

I like that one.
