Recomendations for a good sling?

One that I can use to shoot off-hand (w/ sling support)

and for easy access when walking around?

  Well I checked around some and came up with 3 slings that looked promissing:
  
  Giles
  
  Chalker
  
  CQB Solutions
  
  I have ruled out the chalker.. So its down to the CQB or Giles? What do you all think?

  I'm about 90% sold on the CQB right now unless anyone can tell me why the giles is better then the CQB, they look about the same but the giles is 30 bucks more..

  Silverbox,
  
  Had a 3 day weekend. Check out the VTAC sling from Viking Tactical.

  I have one for my AR & it works great. You would have to buy the adapter to fit your full size stock. You also my need some sort of side mount sling swivel on the muzzle / fore-end of your rifle.
  
  Check out my review:

  PS. Do you have a link so I can see a pic of the CQB sling?
  
  Regards,

  The USGI M-1, M-2 Carbine sling used as taught is fast and easy. It is also dirt cheap!

  Have fun, be careful!

  Silver,
  
  That one looks good to go. A little less expensive than the one I have. Mine has less straps though. [:D]
  
  Edit: Since they don't offer a left handed AK sling, I wonder if I couldn't adapt the mini 14 system for my AK? I'll have to look into it.
  
  PS. Do you still have the original stock on your rifle or have you worked out something with a pistol grip? I read some gun mag awhile back where the author had a pistol grip stock on his mini, looked pretty cool. Also did you stock up on the 10rd mags?
  
  Regards,

  I live in CA. Its illegal to put a pistol grip on a Mini-14 unless you did it before jan 1, 2000 and registered it as an AW, I did not.
  
  I have plenty of clips that I purchased before jan 1, 2000 for my Mini-14.
  
  I just have never gotten around to getting a sling
