    I use a Viking Tactics two point quick adjust on my Sako, a Blue Force Gear VCAS on my AR. I like how it virtually eliminates the need for you to "carry" your rifle. Let your shoulders take the weight. Another big plus is unlike other sling ideas your rifle is there ready for you to shoot when you need it. You don't need to ad swivels or anything to your rifle, just get a butt stock adapter and loop the front of the sling over the barrel/forend like this:

    Ive ordered a Manners with flush cups mounted underneath and on the left side. Will be interesting to see how they work out. I like the concept.

    It wil be a while yet before I get to actually try it though.

    I've been quoted 5 months out of the States but that doesn't worry me because my barrel order is running at 8 months wait time!!

    Stupid wait times!

    Tell me what you are wanting. I can probably get it faster and cheaper (if its another R8 barrel).
