Overview
Built for users who need quick transitions between carry styles, this sling is designed to move from 2-point to 1-point mode without interrupting use. It is suited to situations where a more compact setup may be preferred, such as working around vehicles or in confined spaces, while still preserving instant adjustability in either configuration. The design uses Blue Force Gear’s polymer Burnsed Socket and patented RED Swivel, with overall length adjustment maintained by Acetal triglides. This is a purpose-driven sling for shooters who want flexible carry options without adding unnecessary complexity.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed around both 2-point and 1-point use, it adds flexibility, but the extra mode change is most relevant for users who specifically need that capability.
- The 1-point setup depends on pulling the RED Swivel and reinserting it into the Burnsed Socket, so switching modes is quick but still a manual step.
- Length adjustment is maintained with Acetal triglides, which means fit can be tuned, but the sling is not a fixed-length solution.
- The coyote color and padded 2-to-1 configuration may suit some setups better than others, so compatibility with your rifle setup and carry preference should be considered.
