The Blackhawk Storm XT 70GS16BK delivers rapid weapon transitions and hands-free carry through its proven single-point attachment system. This tactical rifle sling accommodates rifles from 46 to 64 inches overall length while maintaining consistent weapon positioning during dynamic movements.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional two-point slings that can snag or restrict movement, the Storm XT's single-point design allows 360-degree weapon rotation around the attachment point. The 1.25-inch nylon webbing distributes weight across the shoulder and torso more effectively than narrower alternatives. Quick-release hardware enables immediate sling detachment when transitioning between carry modes or vehicle operations.
Key Features
- Single-point attachment system for unrestricted weapon movement and rapid transitions
- Adjustable length from 46 to 64 inches accommodates various rifle configurations
- 1.25-inch black nylon webbing provides durability and comfortable weight distribution
- Quick-release buckle system for immediate sling removal or adjustment
- Compatible with standard sling attachment points and QD mounts
- Low-profile design prevents snagging on gear or vegetation
- Reinforced stitching at stress points for extended service life
Field performance centers on the sling's ability to keep the rifle secure yet instantly accessible during patrol, training, or tactical operations. The single-point configuration excels in vehicle operations where traditional slings can interfere with entry and exit. Weather-resistant nylon construction maintains flexibility in temperature extremes while resisting abrasion from repeated use.
