Good Sling?

[BlueStateCaptive]

I need to get a good sling for my Rem 5R. What is evryone using on their rifles?
I saw a reference to Rifles Only on another thread and liked the looks of their TAB Gear Sling or the Elite sling.
Any other opinions?

Re: Good Sling?

three slings are commonly mentioned (if you use the search, which i'd recommend you to do):

[alphabetic order]
- mountain shooter
- tab
- tis

personally, i go for tis slip cuff (should they ever be available again)

where to get? ---> steve @ triad tactical

i also found the review from steve on the tis sling very helpful:

Re: Good Sling?

I have one TAB and four TIS. They are all quality slings, obviously I prefer the TIS. My favorite being either the original Quick Cuff or the new Slip Cuff Quick Release. I have had very good customer service from Mike at TIS and Steve at Triad Tactical.

Re: Good Sling?

I am also looking a good sling maybe with padding since the rifle weighs in at 15 lb. I have flush cups and swivels already.

Re: Good Sling?

TAB

It would be cool if TAB would make a padding sleeve to slip on the sling for carrying long distances. TAB

Re: Good Sling?

Tag. I'm looking for a good lightweight sling as well.

Re: Good Sling?

Good info. Thanks

Re: Good Sling?

Thanks for the inputs! I think the TAB is the way to go. I will order from TIS though and a stock pack while I'm at it

Re: Good Sling?

More a carrying strap, but I like the Claw for a field gun.
Comfortable, durable & quiet; doesn't lighten the wallet either.

Re: Good Sling?

I found a good shape M60 sling with the pad and used that if it will carry a pig it will carry my rifle. I will look to see what they use downrange next month.

Re: Good Sling?

+1 for the TIS Quick Cuff. I hesitated til recently to purchase one due to cost. But, it's true, you get what you pay for. I should of purchased sooner. Awesome sling, very happy. Does exactly what its supposed to do, and very comfortable to wear and help lug the rifle around. I'd recommend it. I haven't had a chance to use a TAB and I'm sure they are nice, but i went with the TIS and i love it, FWIW.

Re: Good Sling?

I like my Vtac 2point. Worked great in Iraq and Mr. Lamb as some great instruction pieces on how to use it.

Re: Good Sling?

Mountain Shooter Sling for sure.

It is simple yet effective.

You can email Brock for one at [email protected].

Re: Good Sling?

Leather 1907 military sling

 

[scharfschutze762]

Re: Good Sling?

VTAC or Vickers..both can be used as hasty loop slings.

 

[MitchInOR]

Re: Good Sling?

Shameful homemade unit based on a popular sling that looks much better than mine.

 

[jerseymike]

Re: Good Sling?

Def the TAB with quick adjust

 

[scharfschutze762]

Re: Good Sling?

If you dont mind not looking tacticool, dont discount the turner slings if your looking for a shooting aid..plus they feel so nice when broken in.

Re: Good Sling?

Buy once cry once,I purchased one today from Rifles Only and I went all the way. Got the one with the AustriAlpin COBRA Buckles.
If you still looking for one I will let you know if its worth the extra cash when I get it. It's a TAB.

Slip Cuff for my hunting rifle because it has metal parts and can stand cold weather (-35°C) just fine+it is silent to use.

Quick Cuff for range time and for (very) heavy rifles.

All are gtg

Re: Good Sling?

I have a turner 1907, TIS, and 4 TAB slings, the TAB is the simplest easiest and most comfortable design going today IMHO.
