Versatile Gun Sling

Abstract

A gun sling that allows easy movement between various firing positions includes a loop of strapping, a means of adjustment, quick-release system, anchor point, and a sliding device. The sliding device allows an attached weapon to travel across the length of the gun sling itself. A stretchable material may be incorporated to at least one segment of the gun sling in order to facilitate the transition. Additionally, the gun sling may be used in a system involving a harness or vest, wherein a user attaches the gun sling to the hardness or vest and can allow easy transition under a user's arms.
