The Patented Vickers Combat Applications Sling™ has revolutionized the way we carry automatic rifles. Developed with industry friend, expert, and former 1st SFOD-Delta operational member Larry Vickers and author of the Vickers Guide series of firearms books, the Vickers Sling™ incorporates key features from real world experience that makes the two point sling effective and durable - the choice tactical sling requested by name. The Vickers Sling™ has been our most popular product of all, with service in every branch of service here at home as well as several foreign militaries, making it the clear choice for an AR15 sling.
Able to quickly transition from carrying a slung rifle comfortably to combat ready, the patent pending Quick Adjuster has bridged the gap between the two primary uses of weapon slings – from transporting to fighting. All Vickers Slings™ are built with precision and pride right here at home in the US with superior materials.
The Vickers Sling attaches directly to fixed loop firearm attachment systems. Additional hardware can be purchased and added to the front and backend of the sling for more firearm attachment methods.
"The Vickers Padded Sling is without doubt the most comfortable combat carry sling I have ever slung around my shoulders." - Shotgun News, March 2015, Vol 69 - Issue 9, pg 18
There are two options available, Nylon or Metal. The lightweight glass reinforced DuPont Zytel® Nylon hardware lays flatter for comfort while carrying a firearm. There is also an option to upgrade to metal, machined aluminum hardware for extra strength.
For the padded version - see the Padded Vickers Sling page. The 2” inline pad doesn’t move up or down the sling and is made from closed cell foam that won’t separate or gain water weight.
For additional color options for your sling, simply use the Custom Sling Builder: Kryptek Highlander, Kryptek Typhon, Multicam Black, Multicam Arid, Multicam Tropic and more colors are available.

H*** yea I love blue force gear. I have a sling for every rifle. Blue Force Gear f**** all day.
I have this belt on two of my competition PCC's. They are well made and durable and should provide years of service. Priced right as well. .
Love these slings, only one i buy for all my rifles. The fact they were on sale just in time for xmas, only caused me to buy twice as many!
I have used this sling for a majority of my deployments, I have also found that it is easy to use and comfortable. The pull tab allowed for easy adjustment while moving and seemed fairly effortless to adjust. I recommend the wire style attachment for the rear of the sling though. However, this is nothing that some 550 cord can`t fix (if your option does not include this attachment. I recently purchased a 1301 and placed an order for a custom padded sling. Really look forward to receiving it. Can't Recommend this product enough.
The sling is very high quality, durable straps and tough steel buckles. I would recommend this sling to everyone. When someone from our department comes to us for a sling this is one of our go to slings. Great product BFG!
I do not have a single complaint regarding any of the BFG Vickers slings I have purchased. They work as they should each time, every time. Adjustments are smooth, fast and secure in both directions. The quality is outstanding. It is immediately obvious that these slings have been designed by people who actually know the difference between a$*es and elbows.
Very sturdy and very easy adjustment.
My go to sling for all my battle rifles! Made in USA, what more do you need! Buy one, you won't regret it.
Very well made and worth the price. Fast shipping too!
