Adam3088 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Hi all, passing the time waiting for my UKARA to come through by trying to sort out which sling to get. My cheapo dutch assault vest has a clip on each shoulder, is there a sling type which attaches to these? Or do they have another purpose? Only ones I've seen that will attach to a vest just go through a loop of fabric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibernator Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 You'll be able to buy the plastic clips and a couple of tri-glides or something for pennies to convert a sling yourself!

There's plenty of Molle based single points available that use a T shaped end piece that threads through a MOLLE loop on the back of your shoulder which spread the load a bit better. Personally I'd say use a standard style of single point sling for more range of movement until you decide exactly how you want it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzuki Yamamoto Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 You need a Y sling. I have one for my Condor chest rig. Edit: Link added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam3088 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Awesome, thanks guys. Might go for a regular one point and then convert it to the right connectors depending on how I find it.
