mmm... sling...

I put one of these together this morning, and I must say that it's pretty damn cool...

Of course, it kind of helps that I'm a big DIY lover, but who couldn't appreciate such a complex compendium of nylon webbing and sling locks???

(note: once you put it on; spend some time playing around with it. At first it looks damn complex, but after you get the hang of it; it's still damn complex, but you know how to use it)

I think slings are important, as it's not always viable for you to carry your rifle in your hands in a SHTF type situation; especially when you'd have to put it down to do something else or use your hands (as most are wont to do...)
