Correct sling?

frtyfivsevnty · October 08, 2006, 09:26

I'm going to be picking up an AR180 in a few weeks.What is the correct type of sling for this rifle?I assume just a standard AR sling would be right.

I am guessing the older Vietnam era US green canvas sling would be technically correct. It's what we had on M-16's in the late 70's and early 80's and it is probably what would have been put on the AR-18 had it been adopted.
