Whenever possible, I go without a sling. I'll keep a one point on my body for times when I am dead, or need to use both my hands for something, but that doesn't occur very often. If I'm going to pistol, I tend to be in the shit in the woods, so I can always just carry it in my left hand, or toss it and come back for it in a minute or two when I die or have some admin time. Not the most ideal system, but I find sling gets in the way, especially in the woods. Plus, it keeps you flexible in your stance, and you can get into all sorts of weird positions if needed.

CQB, single point, as Brian said, seems to work very well, especially where transitioning is a much higher possibility. Plus, if you need your hands for operating objectives, people, etc, you can just drop the gun, so they make more sense. Going to weak side is a little weird, but if you just push past it, no worries, typically. Admittedly, I don't have any two point slings, but I can't imagine using them for more than stowing the weapon away for transit to and from the playing field.
