Better than Magpul! High quality sling at the lowest price point.
S2Delta 2 Point Sling: http://amzn.to/2oYA75eUTG Pro M-Lok QD Mount: http://amzn.to/2nxDDGUThis 2 point tactical sling is easily the best value out there. S2Delta is the new kid on the block, but their USA made sling speaks for itself and is as good or better than Magpul, Viking Tactical, Vickers and other name brands. Their modular system enables swapping between QD Swivel, clash hooks, & standard pigtail straps. The thicker strap is far better than the thinner ones that can cut into your back and flip around with use. I purchased it with QD swivels and they work great with the UTG QD sling mount (link above) as well as Magpul CTR Stock. Usually you have to pay a premium for quality, but in this case quality can be had for much less than the better known brands.Also this is a vet-owned company and they do give a military discount.I made a YouTube video reviewing this sling. Search for "S2Delta Tactical Sling."

Upgraded design is waaaaay too long.
You can see from the pictures I shared that the design is unlike that in the product description. That's fine with me, I was concerned about the plastic buckle digging into my shoulder and collar bone where the 2" webbing transitions to the 1" webbing. This isn't a problem any more, though the edges are still pretty jagged from where it's cut and melted so it'll scratch your neck if you don't touch up the sharp parts yourself.My biggest problem is that it's waaay too long. I didn't measure it but you can see from the picture that when it's fully extended, my muzzle is at my ankles and my stock rests at my belly button. I'm 5' 11" and 170. You'd have to be giant for this to be necessary. This is a problem because it limits how short you take the sling in. There are 2 main adjustments. The first is the quick adjustment in the 1" webbing and another which is not quick adjusting in the 2" webbing.Ideally, I'd set the 2" webbing adjustment so that when I'm in a shooting stance with my rifle, the quick adjustment is maybe 1/2 through the range. If the quick adjustment is 100% shortened, I can just barely hold the shooting stance. That way at rest, I can synch it down and it's fairly secure on my body. But as is, I simply can't get it tight enough.The solution will be to take out the stitching on the 2" webbing where it adjusts and pay someone how knows how to use a sewing machine take it in maybe 10"If they'd just fix this one thing it would easily be 5 stars. The quick adjustment is super fast and effortless to manipulate. and the straps feel very nice. hardware is solid too. Plastic buckles are much stronger than anything I'm used to seeing.

Fits my rifle and my person perfect
I ordered the S2Delta QD quick disconnect version sling. I attached it to my Magpul CTR stock. As you'll see in the pictures, I have it set up with my head and left arm through the sling. I'm running a CMMG MK47 Mutant with Maglinked double mags of 7.62, Trijicon ACOG, GG&G Bipod and a Magpul AFG-1. With all that weight hanging on my neck, easily adjusting the S2 with it's adjustment strap that I've included in a picture makes for a comfortable wear. So far about 24 hours of walking my acreage and transitioning from the back to my side to engaging targets is seemless. I will buy from S2 again in the future.

TOO LONG - NO DOUBT
The concept is great [modular sling]; the execution and application of the concept, modular sling, is average at best. I should have heeded the warning of a review that emphasized the length of the sling being too long [if you're of average height]. Their should be two sizes to choose from, one of average length and another size, longer, for big and/or tall. Having the attachment gear at the top of the sling cutting into your shoulder, if you wear the sling like a normal sling, isn't good; so the thing is to pull the sling over over your head to allow the wide section of the sling to lay ACROSS yourback - and then swing your gun under your arm in sort of an appendix carry position with the butt end of the stock lower and the pistol grip higher. This takes some getting used to but it is effective, especially if your weapon is heavy like mostseem to be. The thing of being able to use one good sling for many different guns, using what ever S2Delta add on orswap out attachment that's needed, was so appealing that I had to give it a try but it really did not work out that well.Even so, being a right handed shooter, I can pull the sling up and over my head, from the LEFT side, and then pull the gun down under my left arm; in this position the sling crosses over the back of my neck and shoulder - from right to left[if you will]. At times, after traveling some distance and becoming tired this can be reversed to ,put the sling over your head from the right side, wide part of the sling laying ACROSS your back, with the gun under your right arm. If a need fortaking a quick shot arises, when the gun is carried under my LEFT arm, I need only swing the gun AROUND the front side of my body, and then up, to be in a good, and normal shooting position - for a right handed shooter. Normal or shorter men out there just try what I describe and work on it; it's about the only way this sling can be useful. This sling supports the weight of a heavy gun and a fully loaded high cap mag so well, with the 2 inch wide section across my back, that many times I will just go with this sling and use what ever add on or swap out optional attachment that's needed for any particular gun - at the time. As it is every gun has its own sling on it, of various types, and that becomes expensive.The slings out there with one inch, or not much wider, straps are a joke even that many of them are pricey [you're just paying for the brand name with little or nothing that much better about the sling] - [compared to other similar slings].First thing to do with this S2Delta sling, for most, is to shorten it up, adjust, to the shortest possible length and then work with it, as I describe above, so the WIDE part of the strap lays ACROSS your back to help SUPPORT the weight of the gun and keep the attachment area near the barrel from cutting into your shoulder - like will happen with a standard carry position used with most any other sling. This S2Delta sling, in the form it was in when I bought it, cuts into the shoulderquite a bit when used same like any other sling. However, perhaps there have been some changes made as to sizing for average height shooters. Now if any plastic is replaced by steel this might really become something good. Girly slingsjust won't do to carry serious guns.I can, and do, even carry a loaded down AK with this sling, with the proper attachment, to lock in to the metal loop near the muzzle and keep the QD to attach to the MAGPUL rifle stock at the other end. There's a shoulder pad for bags at amazon, HAZARD 4, that fits the two inch wide section of this sling perfectly; and with that added this sling supports heavy weight guns very well indeed. I have the HAZARD 4 shoulder pad, for bags and such, attached to quite a few guns.Many parts of this sling are plastic as they had to be or else this sling would have to cost twice as much. I get itbut some light weight alloy, non-aluminum, used for some of the attachment parts would help to make this producta big winner. That along with some common sense changes to the length of of the sling - where it connects to a gunnear the muzzle; this is the part that rides the front side of your shoulder when the length of the attachment is tooshort or isn't right. This is a key dimension on a 'modular' sling and it will/should differ as well depending on the heightof the shooter.Done right, and correctly, about taking everything important into account, would have no issue to pay 100$ for this sling, with the attachments adding to that cost, but I would use it on most every gun I take to the woods so it would be well worth the cost. It would be much cheaper than having many guns and each with a different sling, as it is now.Modular sling is a great concept. The guys that produce this should make some common sense changes and also improve/upgrade this to replace as much of the plastic as possible. Anybody would have to get in line for one of these after that as there would really be no competition to this product. It's tacti-COOL, even as it is, or was, even being sucha LONG one.I would not normally write a review even that I have written many in the past. But on this product I can tell many of you need help. No, it isn't simple or easy, what I describe; but it's about the only way that I can see for an average height shooter to make it work. For the really big and/or really tall men this sling may work just fine as it is, or was. Maybesome changes have been made but I have to make the sling I have work - on some guns anyway. Cost isn't much of afactor if you had a sling that you could use, or modify, to work on most any rifle or shotgun. As it is, most slings out there are not even close to being good enough, cost a mint, and are more or less a joke.

Very Solid and well made sling.
Very Solid and well made sling.Adjustable to a longer length than most slings I've had, perfect fit for my AR from the buttstock to the tip of the handguard.I got the one with the CLASH hook attachments; they are well made hooks, and clip to my QD loops perfectly, as well as clipping to the ring on the sling to make a good 1 point mount configuration.I would definitely recommend this sling to others.In fact, my hunting buddy saw it, and is buying one as well.
