Re: AR Slings - Recommendations

So, my question is: Is the padded one more to difficult to adjust?

Thanks!
I have both and don't see any difference in adjustment ease.

At rest (standing/walking) I let the sling let out and my AR drapes to the side comfortably.
You can quickly go to a shooting position and pull the sling tab to shorten it to your current position. Which allows you to have a firm hold with pressure for stability. My stability in standing position is many times greater with that adjustment feature.

There is a "wide" version that is slightly padded as well (recommended) and they are built pretty tough.
The VTAC is my preferred sling too - after having tried a boxful of the others. It is simple, easily and quickly adjustable, highly fool resistant*, and tough as nails.

I use the same system on all my centerfire rifles.
