Versatile two-to-one point sling with instant conversion capability. Features durable Cordura webbing, steel RED swivel, and molded acetal hardware for AR platforms and compatible weapons.
The Blue Force Gear Vickers 221 Sling represents a significant advancement in tactical sling design. It solves a common problem: the need to switch between two-point and one-point configurations depending on your mission requirements.
The sling's innovative design centers on the patented RED (Rapid Emergency Detachment) Swivel and molded Burnsed Socket. Simply pull the RED swivel knob and reinsert it into the rear Burnsed Socket to convert from two-point to one-point mode—or back again—in seconds. This conversion happens without sacrificing adjustability in either configuration.
Webbing and Hardware:
The Vickers 221 fits any weapon system with two QD (quick-detach) sling swivel sockets, with the rear socket positioned toward the receiver's end. This covers most AR-platform rifles and many other modern firearms.
For weapons with rear eyelets instead of QD sockets—such as SCAR, Sig, or HK platforms—you can add a Universal Wire Loop with Push Button Socket as an alternative to the included push button socket.
Two-point slings excel for most shooting situations, offering stability and control. However, one-point configuration shines during vehicle deployment or close-quarters work in complex structures. The Vickers 221 gives you both capabilities in one sling, with full adjustability maintained in either mode—whether you're running with or without body armor.
