The Blue Force Gear Vickers SAW Sling is the ideal solution for improving machine gun slings.
Featuring top-notch materials and the renowned Quick Adjust feature of the Vickers Combat Applications Sling, it allows for instant length adjustments, seamlessly transitioning from carrying to combat without the need to remove the weapon. The Vickers SAW Sling boasts a 2.75" wide x 18" long tubular webbing pad (2" wide x 18" long for Multicam) to ensure a cushioned surface bears the load, even if the sling flips during use.
Tailored for smaller belt-fed guns like the MK46 and M249 SAW, the SAW Sling sports a smaller pad than the M240 Sling. This 2-point sling design eliminates potential feeding hazards associated with 3-point slings. Plus, the front webbing piece (Adjuster side) is crafted from Nomex with metal hardware, ensuring resistance to burn-through in case the sling comes into contact with a hot barrel.
Triglides on both ends of the sling can be looped through sling swivels on the gun or paired with Universal Wire Loops™, HK Hooks, or MASH Hooks (available separately) to expand sling attachment options.
