The problem I have with the ms3 and 4 slings is that even the real ones have a proprietary plastic loop that is closed by a metal hoop... the metal holds up.. the plastic even from magpul will eventually get chewed up and snap, opening the loop and making the gun fall out of the clip.

The fake ms2s were a TERRIFIC deal, they used sailing rigging hardware off the shelf that were made out of steel. The real ms2s used the same hardware, high quality steel sailing rigging. If it broke.. I don't see how it would.. you could unstitch the sling, buy the exact same snap shackle and replace it, sew it back up.

You can't do that for the ms3 and ms4 slings.
