It is the true path grass hopper.

This is the way.

What is everyone’s favorite choice for a sling? I generally go with the attachment points for an Urban ERT sling on most rifles but have gone with the Magpul sling on my PDW AR. Anyone playing with single point?

Mine are all Magpul MS1 with QD swivels on the ends.

I like the Magpul sling on the small rifle but do appreciate the wider sling width that the ERT slings on the heavier stuff. I think those are made here in Indiana by a veteran owned and operated company.

I have two of the ERT slings, one 2 point and the other a hybrid single/two point. The plus side of the system is that I just add attachment points to new rifles and keep the sling system separate. That makes the safe less cluttered. The downside is that if 3 of us are in the field, only 2 of us have slings for my rifles if we are using only my equipment. That’s not a huge deal though, as my sons both have their own slings on their own rifles.

I’d love to do a hike someday with the 716 to see how the single and two point slings work out. That is not something that’s easy to do.

I’ll second that thought: TGIF. Seemed to take longer to get here this week than usual.

I'll second that. This was my first full week after three short weeks and it seemed to take at least a month...

At least it is here.

Speaking of hiking with rifles, has anyone ever tried to do a decent hike with a rifle outside of military service? Testing the capability of a sling system by doing a decent hike seems like a good idea but I imagine you’d be attracting the wrong kind of attention in most locations.

My slings are separated also. I don’t have much room in the safe and the slings just seem to be a pain in the butt to situate properly.

I’m old school. All my slings with the exception of one are USGI type web slings. Don’t ask me how to use them properly, I’ve forgotten... big believer in all rifles having slings.

Mornin fellers. Easy day for me, lathes are on autopilot. No molds to make or repair. All I gotta do is make a hub to mount a 5c collet chuck on our 4th axis in one of the mills and maybe deburr some parts.

So I am building that pieced in my mind trying to picture all the ins and outs to machine something like that.

I'm being a TSA Decoy this morning. Carrying explosives in the airport. It's pretty fun and it helps them out. This helps with the canine screening.

Good luck with that gig.

Good luck with that gig.

I did it a couple of months ago and it turned out fine. That should mean that it will turn out fine every time, right?
