Carrying a secondary when sniping

I'm currently in love with my SRS, so will be running that as a main my next game.
But I'd also like to run my vector as a pistol secondary.
My problem is how to secure it, whilst it's not in use. Whilst using the SRS, I'm prone a lot.
And whilst vertical ad moving over longer distances, I have the SRS slung on my back.
So I'm after any suggestions as to where I can safely put my vector, where it will actually remain useful and accessible.
Failing that, I guess I'll just have to buy another gun... 
TIA 😄

2 point sling the Vector on your back when prone,  then you would be carrying the Vector as a primary when moving with the SRS slung.   Bit of a faff but is that not how you would do it?

Yeah pretty much that, i have seen m4's being dangled off the back on 1-points but normally i'd say your shtf moments your better with either a pistol or dropping the srs and bringing the vector up.

Not too versed in Vector mechanics, is there anything in the Pistol grip?  I’d not, I’d suggest a mag mount system, magnet in a drop leg holster, magnet in grip, voila.

 

 

If not, possibly a DIY hook System, like a mini meat hook, customise it to make it a bit bigger and not easy to fall off, maybe on a battle belt or something, clip it on the grip.

 

Or, get something 3D printed similar to the DTD. @Samurai would be the man to talk to.

Check my "versatile sniper kit" and "gun retention" threads, I've tried to solve your exact same problem ;)

I have found a decent solution with an old sling I had, my arp is now hanging from my right shoulder, securing the muzzle onto my belt.

If you're not wearing a backpack I'd say get a 1 point sling and bodge some sort of loop to stick the vector's muzzle in when you're not using it

Sadly the grip is where the battery lives 😞
