The Allen 8538 Trak Sling delivers reliable weapon retention and quick adjustment capabilities in challenging outdoor environments. This two-point sling system accommodates rifles from compact carbines to full-length hunting rifles while maintaining low-profile carry comfort.
What Makes This Different
The Trak Sling features Allen's proprietary adjustment mechanism that allows length changes without removing the weapon from shooting position. Unlike fixed-length slings that require pre-positioning, this system adapts instantly from 28 to 48 inches with simple thumb pressure. The Veil Terrain pattern provides effective concealment across diverse hunting environments while the reinforced stitching handles repeated field use.
Key Features
- Quick-adjust mechanism extends from 28 to 48 inches without weapon removal
- Veil Terrain camouflage pattern effective in multiple environments
- 1.25-inch wide nylon webbing distributes weight across shoulder
- Heavy-duty swivel attachments fit standard sling studs
- Silent operation eliminates metallic noise during movement
- Reinforced stress points handle rifles up to 12 pounds
- Non-slip shoulder pad prevents sliding during extended carry
Field performance centers on the sling's ability to transition between carry positions without adjustment stops or hardware manipulation. The webbing material resists moisture absorption and maintains flexibility in temperatures from -20°F to 140°F. Hunters appreciate the silent adjustment mechanism during stalking situations, while tactical users benefit from rapid length changes when moving between vehicles and structures.
