Color?

I have one and love it, but had to compromise on the color. Multicam just doesn't go well with a black and FDE AR.

Without a doubt.

If you shoot with a sling, the Quick cuff sling is a good option. But most bolt gunners just use slings for carrying the rifle.

I really like this sling, its been great on a variety of rifles. My next build is getting one too.

I just ordered one of these with HK hooks for my AICS. I'm hoping to be able to figure out how to also use it with the HK hooks on an AR. It'd be nice to get double duty out of it since I rarely use a sling.

If you like the regular version, wait until you try the padded variant. I switched over once the padded versions were released and have never looked back. The padding definitely helps when wearing a carbine all day.

Way-way late to the party for these, but I just used one last weekend in a 6.5 mile biathlon in Oklahoma. The COF had multiple 100'+ elevation changes in it through heavily wooded areas, up and down creek banks etc. The sling provided the necessary retention to keep the carbine from flopping around during the running and climbing portions but still made transitions to different firing positions very quick and easy.
