How trustable are these 1-point slings?

The thing I'm most worried about is the button, but can I trust a 8-10 lb rifle on these without complications?

The tension on the snap will be vertically loaded when the gun is hanging loose, so it should be able to take the weight. After all, that's what it's designed to do. I could see it coming undone if it was bumped upward by something, though.

Perhaps I'll buy one just to do stress tests...

I've seen that type of hook stretch out and deform to the point that it no longer latched...

You can find 1 point bungee slings for that price. I have one. I haven't used one of the slings in the picture but i wouldn't trust it by the looks.

They eventually wear out. One point slings are useful to a point and then you'll wish for a 2 or 3 point (when you need the sling to actually hold the weapon in place without your hands on it).

I would only buy a 1-Point if you are going to use it as a shooting support. Think of the classic MP5K sling-usage:

MP5K AM ARE MILSIM

Otherwise, get a 2 point.

One points are great when you know you'll have your rifle up all day (cqb, no sidearm?). I don't love two points. The MS2 and MS3, though...

Those'll do.

I forgot to mention that I have and use two 1-Point slings on a regular basis for CQB.

Pantac: Great for my MP5K and lighter weapons.

Bungee (I have a different brand): This type of clip is really sturdy, and if it fits into your sling mount I wold highly recommend it to you. Great quality clip, and the bungee helped when I ran an M249.

Or, for $0.10 more, you can get a better one:

I used one of these for the better part of two years. As long as you know you are going to have to mount it to a vest, you're golden. They (at least the Spec-Ops brand) hold up pretty well. The wolf-hook style stays put pretty well, hangs the rifle muzzle-down, and is fairly comfy as long as the vest you are mounting it to is solid enough to not get dragged around by 8-10 pounds hanging from one shoulder.

I wouldn't trust a sling that attaches to an airsoft guns stock unless you know the buffer tube and receiver is made of a good material and that the stock is real steel.

I love my MS2 sling! got it looped through my shoulder pad on my TMC 6094 and it works even better! The only thing I would recommend if you get it is to replace the paracord on the loop since it gets loose pretty easily. Just grab both ends and just do a simple overhand knot, I think that's the right one, and it should hold pretty well. Just remember cheaper isn't better.
