The Phase 5 Weapon Systems SLGBLK Single Point Sling eliminates weapon bounce and shoulder fatigue during extended operations through its integrated elastic shock-cord system. This tactical sling maintains consistent weapon positioning while allowing rapid transitions between shooting positions and hands-free movement.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard single-point slings that create uncomfortable weapon swing, the SLGBLK incorporates a bungee shock-cord section that absorbs movement energy. The dual-material construction combines 1-inch military-spec nylon webbing with high-tensile elastic cord rated for 200-pound dynamic loads. This hybrid design reduces weapon bounce by approximately 70% compared to non-bungee alternatives while maintaining quick-adjust capability.
Key Features
- Integrated elastic shock-cord reduces weapon bounce and operator fatigue
- 1-inch black nylon webbing with reinforced stitching at stress points
- Quick-adjust slider allows length changes from 30 to 60 inches
- Universal HK-style snap hook fits most QD sling mounts and attachment points
- Low-profile design prevents snag hazards on gear and vegetation
- Ambidextrous configuration works with left and right-handed shooters
- Chemical-resistant materials withstand cleaning solvents and lubricants
Field performance testing demonstrates the shock-cord system maintains tension across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F without degradation. The sling accommodates rifles and shotguns weighing up to 12 pounds while providing controlled weapon retention during vehicle operations, building clearing, and patrol activities. Water-resistant nylon construction sheds moisture and resists UV fading during outdoor use.
