After retiring from active duty, I swore I'd never own an M-4/M-16/AR-15 or similar type weapon ever. Flash forward a couple years and I find myself the proud owner of a 5.56mm AR. I just couldn't pass up the deal given the price. During my active days, I always got issued an M-16A2 with the standard issue sling. I don't have much experience carrying the smaller M-4 type weapons. The question I have is what type of sling do you prefer and why? What is the most comfortable and easy to use? For my purpose, I believe a two-point set up would be better as I will primarily be carrying the weapon while on the 4-wheeler or tractor on the farm (we have an overabundance of coyotes at the moment). Thoughts?

I like and use my one point sling. It allows me a bit more flexibility and quickness of Point and shoot.

LTC (Join to see) - Agreed sir. Much more fun than lugging that big assed M-16A2 around. Incidentally, I'm thinking it would be worth investing in a not-to-elaborate reloading rig. Might be a productive way to keep myself occupied when the weather is nasty.
