The Blue Force Gear Vickers SAW Sling is a 2-point design that eliminates the potential feeding hazards that are common with 3-point slings. Made specifically for machine guns, the front webbing piece (adjuster side) is made from Nomex with metal hardware to resist burn-through in case the sling comes in contact with the hot barrel.
The SAW Sling features the Quick Adjust feature of the Vickers Combat Applications Sling to instantly lengthen or shorten the sling. This allows the gunner to transition from carrying to fighting without removing the weapon from their body.
The Vickers SAW Sling features a 2.75" wide x 18" long tubular webbing pad (2" wide x 18" long for Multicam) to insure that a padded surface is carrying the load even if the sling flips during use. With a smaller pad than the M240 Sling, the SAW Sling is designed for smaller belt-fed guns such as the MK46 and M249 SAW.
Triglides on both ends of the sling can be looped through sling swivels on the gun or combined with Universal Wire Loops™, HK Hooks, or MASH Hooks (sold separately) for increased sling attachment options.
