Finished Up A Couple Of Single Point Slings.

 Finished up these Leather Single Point Slings for a couple of good friends. They wanted these for their ARs. The old girl is sewing really nice.

Beautiful work. Not the sling I usually see. Are they for a specific type of use?

Not sure how they are I used but they wanted me to make these for them. They are for their ARs. Thanks

A single point sling has several advantages . . . the biggest of which allows you to pass the caretaking of the firearm to either arm effortlessly and quickly.

Makes for entering or leaving a doorway very easy . . . as well as meandering thru bushes . . . or trails where overgrowth can get in the way.

Allows one to reach down and pick up something on the ground or a table . . . without the possibility of stubbing the muzzle in the mud.

I put a ring on the left side of my M1A just below the rear sight . . . and I love my single point sling when I'm carrying the rifle . . . the weight around the neck does not bother me as much as trying to carry it on a shoulder.

it is also MUCH MUCH quicker to put into action than any other sling I've ever tried to use.

May God bless,

Dwight

great job!! A bit heavy leather, IMO, but hey, they look fantastic and should work well. I would suggest,using these clips made specifically for the job if you do any more of them. I have had the ones you used snag the thumbpiece and open just on my suspenders.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/171369888626?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5338590836&toolid=10044&loc_physical_ms=101688&customid=32c1eb99c2f11fb7b82f83561eeeacea

I always liked the 3-point sling for tactical carry, and I use the M1907 rifle sling on all my long-range guns, so they all fit the same.
