Custom Rifle Slings for your Gun - The Vickers Sling Builder
The Custom Rifle Sling Builder allows you to create personalized slings for your gun. From unique color combinations of webbing and hardware to sewing details for specific weapons, it’s all possible now! Each sling you build will be custom sewn by one of our expert sling sewers in our Savannah Georgia facility. There is also a Custom Padded Vickers Sling Builder. Please allow 7-14 days for your sling to be built and shipped. Please note – even though all BFG Slings are handmade, due to the one-off custom nature of these slings, please allow additional time for these to be made and shipped to you.
For the first time users - please read through so we can make you the best sling possible. Follow the steps below to choose how the sling is built - with 7 color options, 12 hardware versions, and 14 front and rear hardware attachment options there are thousands of possibilities. We’ll walk you through the process to give you the best custom gun sling with the best fit!
Custom Gun Sling Webbing Colors
The Custom Gun Sling Builder walks you through the components of the sling starting at the front (the Adjuster side) to the back and adjuster color. The webbing color swatches below represent more accurate webbing colors. The sling front is where the adjuster is located: this would be the end that attaches towards the muzzle of an AR15, AKM, or a similar modern sporting rifle / shotgun. As you select each option, you will see your sling being “built” in the image.

Rifle Sling Hardware Attachment Options
With all the attachment options to choose from, we have listed the individual products below that can be found in the rifle sling hardware section of the store. Depending on the rifle sling mount: Each gun is unique, and further research is available by seeing each individual product page.
Additional Custom Sling Hardware Options: Sewn on to Triglides.
When looking at the options for the gun sling – let us cover the triglides option first. This is the hardware, nylon (lightweight glass reinforced DuPont Zytel®) or steal that keeps the sling together to the adjuster. Choosing to permanently sew on the hardware makes for a dedicated style sling. The other option is using triglides that allow for sling attachment to rifle sling loops and other hardware.
Vickers Sling – Patented Adjuster
The Custom Rifle Sling Builder is based on the world's standard in weapon slings. With over half a million in-use by all U.S. Branches of Service to foreign allies. The patented quick adjuster allows for the gun operator to go from carry to shooting instantly, saving lives. Vickers Slings are the rifle sling we have come to rely on and trust.
Since each Custom Vickers Sling is truly unique and made specifically for you - we currently do not offer refunds or do returns. As with all Vickers Slings - your custom sling will be warrantied for life against defects and failure. If there is ever a problem - we’ll make it right.
If you are undecided on the options, sling use, fitment, or any other concerns - it would be best to start with a Vickers Sling that can easily be exchanged or returned.

Custom Slings in colors YOU want
Posted by Bill C on Jan 22nd 2025
These are wonderful slings. Unlike many nylon slings these are nonslip (and without using rubber threads that deteriorate). You are not constantly adjusting shoulder positions and length like may nylon slings. The custom option allows a wide variety of colors and patterns, besides black, FDE and OD; and you can select metal or synthetic hardware. I have both types and have never had an issue with the synthetic hardware, which also seems to keep adjustment better. Great work at great prices.

Excellent Sling
Posted by SuburbanOperator on Nov 18th 2023
Had to wait a bit for mine, probably a supply issue. Was worth the wait. Very nice sling, and being able to customize the hardware selection was really good for my set up. Stitching and materials is very high quality, will probably buy a couple more.

Works perfect on a FN Scar 20s
Posted by Scott on Aug 20th 2022
I have been wanting to take my Scar 20 heavy hog hunting but was not sure what sling to use. As 90% of my gun have BFG slings I wanted one for my Scar as well. I did not know that you can build a sling custom down to even the color until a friend told me about it. I built the perfect sling for my Scar. I kinda wish I had the padded version but I made that mistake ordering it.

Love the options

Love the options. Being able to make the pull tab another color helps being able to spot it fast.

Very impressed with the service
Posted by Joseph on Nov 5th 2021
First of all, I am very impressed with the service of BFG. I ordered my Vickers custom sling last Friday (3/2) and received it yesterday (3/8) Multicam Black all the way. I received emails updating the status of my order and got just what I paid for, an excellent piece of gear. I'm sure BFG is very busy with government and agency contracts but also meet the request of a plain civilian is top notch. All the other gifts in the gear box was just another example of BFG customer service. Rest assured my next rifle build will definitely wear a BFG sling. God bless your business, have a great day, be a Patriot, Love America.

My new sling of choice
Posted by Ethan on Nov 5th 2021
Bought a sling for a retro looking AR I have. For some time ive only really used ferro concepts slings. After getting my BFG sling, I'm a changed man. I still like Ferro concepts slings, but the Vickers custom sling felt like it fit me much better, was easier to adjust, felt like a stronger material, and overall truly felt like this sling was built for me. This will probably become my new sling of choice. I just have one request, would it be possible to get it in woodland color? Regardless, a really great sling and will be buying from them again.

Durable and feels sturdy
Posted by Ben on Nov 5th 2021
Simply amazing product. Can definitely see why the military uses it. The sling and hardware is second to none when it comes to quality. Very durable and feels sturdy. Definitely isn’t going to break any time soon. Took a little over 2 weeks to make and ship but the shipping time Itself was next day. Will definitely be buying more BFG products.

Turned out Great
Posted by Torsten on Nov 5th 2021
I just received my new custom Vickers sling, and I could not be happier with how it turned out. The rear uses a Molded UWL and the front a pushbutton QD swivel. This gives me a one-hand length-adjustable two-point sling that converts into a single-point sling in seconds by connecting the QD stud to the hole of the UWL.

Perfect for my rifle

Love this little sling. Easy to use, and COMFORTABLE. Thank you for the great service and for caring about the 'little things'. Really great design, and the customization of attachments is perfect for my rifle.
