M16 AR-15 M4 3 Point Tactical Sling - Slings Only
The M16 tactical sling is constructed to meet the USMC Combat Assault Sling Program Basic Requirements. The sling is designed for the M16 and M4 Carbine family of weapons. It is ambidextrous and can be adapted on weapons with butt stocks similar in size to the M16. The length can be shortened for normal weapons carry when not in a tactical posture. It is fully adjustable so as not cause obstruction when entering into a Marine Corps marksmanship firing position.
These three point tactical slings are constructed of 1 in. wide, 6.5 ft. polypropylene webbing material. This material is ideal for rifle slings because it is lighter but comparable in strength to nylon. These slings feature mil-spec plastic hardware for silent operation, a "quick release" system for rapid separation from the operator and a double cross-boxed stitch pattern to attach the tactical sling hardware to the webbing.
A tactical sling positions a long gun horizontally or diagonally across the front of the body. The 3 point design allows you to carry your weapon "hands-free" taking weight off both your hands while still keeping the weapon quickly accessible. This facilitates quick weapon transitions between handgun and rifle. A tactical sling also makes simple tasks like reading maps and opening doors easier while maintaining control and accessibility of your weapon.
