I'm fond of one (for the AR series) made by "The Wilderness." Sorry, I don't know the model name, as it was a gift... In my experience, there are MANY bad "tactical" slings out there, that are uncomfortable, can slip loose, are poorly constructed, and/or just plain stink.

There are also, however, several good models out there with slightly different features for different preferences. I prefer the front sling swivel to be "side mounted" when using a 3-point sling, for example, and some models are much better than others when using this method of attachment.

EDIT: Good thing they didn't ask about this on the mall-ninja quiz, or I'd have gone up 10% right there!
