Magpul MS2 sling: any similar alternatives?

[Ghillie Zen]

I've been using Magpul's MS2 sling for awhile and really like the ability to convert from single to a 2-point sling, but the narrow webbing doesn't provide much comfort and cuts into my neck/shoulder.

The MS2 is an excellent sling and I like the design, but are there any alternatives on the market with wider webbing or padding that provide the same conversion ability?

tacstrap.com I have been using one for a few months. It works great for me.

Zac,
I have thought the same when using the MS2 over a rig.
Fantastic sling but gets uncomfortable after a couple hours.
Have Tony or Stu make you a strap cover to your width. Maybe a slip over padded area.
Tac it in and your good to go.
Just a thought.

A slip over pad should do the job. I'll probably go this route so that I can keep runnin the MS2. Thanks Scott!

CalmlyDeMented, good suggestion on the Tacstrap as well. Checked out their site, looks nice. I like the use of the wide webbing and the snap hooks.

I think you should wait about a week or two...

Is that for the MS3?

I do believe so, I remember hearing that it was supposed to be coming out soon.

I have a BDS Tactical Dual Sling that is similar to the Magpul MS2. I like the BDS sling a lot, and have never felt the webbing was too narrow.

Urban ERT Slings has at least one model that can be switched from single to a two point sling.
