Blackhawk cqd sling w/ covers, nice sling for the money - BlackHawk Dieter CQD Sling with Sling Cover

I purchased this sling for my duty AR Carbine. This is the 1st sling I've owned with the HK style hooks and I was a little skeptical about the easy of use and if they would stay attached to the weapon. I am very impressed with this style of connectors and have will have no worries if I have to use my weapon in an actual tactical deployment. It is well made with heavy duty metal hooks and strap material. Velcro holds the fabric nicely over hooks and eliminates all noise. After fitting the sling, I found that a couple of the elastic loops was needed to hold unneeded strap. I could trim ends, but I have found that it is somewhat difficult to get a clean seal with a flame form either a gas stove or BIC style lighter.
Pros: Flexible single to 2 point sling, very well made, extra stitching at hook attachments, HD metal hooks
Cons: Very long straps
