Got another shooting class coming up on the 14th and then 29th... I'm out buying gadgets and gizmos for my AR again.

I don't like the one side / both side rings / loops models because they seem to get in the way of the selector switch / charging handle and don't allow for as-quick-as-I-want shoulder-to-shoulder transitions... but these three sit-under-the-tube models seem like they'll fit the bill nicely. I used the old school GI two point sling for both deployments but that was only because we weren't allowed to return fire. I need something faster (read: ambidextrous) for these hot-hot target range obstacle courses like leaning out from barrels on each side and shooting from and through vehicles.

I've got a simple 2" single point breakaway sling that I'm going to attach to one of the following items with good old 550.

Magpul ASAP - Magpul ASAP Ambidextrous Sling Attachment Point

vs.

KZ ambi - KZ Ambidextrous Sling Adapter

vs.

Blackhawk ambi - Blackhawk Ambidextrous Sling Adapter

...

Thoughts? Anybody use / own these?
