Nicely put. A lot easier to pick my handgun up and have my sling hold my SR-25 thats shooting at 420fps.
And to Stalker, 100% correct (like always lol), a properly set up sling is very, very useful.
To Mikel, having a sling is not being lazy (if anyting, not having one would be because you want to save some money...). I'm not sure how you got that one figured out, but when looking at real soldiers, they almost all have a sling for their guns. I even saw American snipers with slings on their snipers.
Random Pictures of Soldiers, ALL have a sling for their rifles:

And also, not sure how you think that i will not need my hands in Airsoft... on those 2 days games, id sure love to take 5 mins to eat something or use the radio... try holding a SR-25 at the ready with one hand for a extended amount of time... not pleasant at all.
