Re: RIFLE SLING - Edgar Sherman Design
I watched his videos too. I have an IDF sling and the differences are trivial. The only thing I see different is the "quick adjust" length adjustment that you don't need. How it is carried and used is exactly the same. The military sling is made from quality materials and that is not a cheap-assed hardware store hook connector. You think the Israeli military issues crap?

Re: RIFLE SLING - Edgar Sherman Design
OK, we define "trivial" differently then.
When I looked at it, these were my observations:
It's too wide. (for me)
It has no "keeper".
If it adjusts, I don't know how - the guy in the vid didn't bother to demonstrate that.
If it works for you, that's all that matters. It's not something I'm interested in though because - it has none of the features of the ESD sling - which has all the features I'm looking for in a sling.I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

Re: RIFLE SLING - Edgar Sherman Design
The IDF slings do not have a quick adjust feature and that is a good thing. You set the sling up once to the correct length and leave it. For actual military use this is critical since the way these slings are used if it is adjusted too tight you will not be able to get the rifle into shooting position in a split second when needed. In the Sherman and VTAC videos you see then quickly loosening the sling then shooting. Then tightening them for close to the body carry. While this looks Tacticool in actual military use it would mean dead soldiers
