The Blue Force Gear Vickers 221 Sling allows users to switch from 2-point to 1-point mode instantly by pulling on the RED Swivel knob and reinserting it in to the Burnsed Socket at the rear of the receiver. The instantaneous adjustability of the sling is still maintained in both 1 and 2 point modes. The 221™ Sling fits any weapon with two QD sling swivel sockets with the rear socket towards the end of the receiver.
The sling features 1.25″ sling webbing, 2.00″ tubular webbing with closed cell foam padding for padded models, Invista solution dyed CORDURA® webbing, and ITW GhilleTex™ Acetal hardware – a military grade, low IR plastic. The RED™ Swivel is machined steel, phosphated for maximum corrosion resistance, with nylon coated, double crimped directly to 7 strand stainless steel aircraft cable, textured sphero-conical shaped pull knob, and stainless steel internals.
The sling combines a polymer Burnsed Socket and patented RED Swivel for 2-point to 1-point conversion, with a standard push button swivel and molded Burnsed Socket woven onto the rear allowing full adjustability of the sling for use with or without body armor. All Vickers Padded Slings™ are built with precision and pride right here at home in the US with superior materials.
