First things first... sorry for the headlights....

Now that we are over that! I have a new sling design to give away! Ill try to keep this short and sweet!

The rules-

-must be a forum member with over 20 posts in the continental USA (ill do Alaska, Hawaii, or anywhere else if you pay shipping)

-must own a Beachin Tactical 2 point sling (my next giveaway will be to someone who doesnt have one of my slings already)

-must be willing to compare the new style to the old in a review

- aka you HAVE TO USE it!!!

There is no timeline, it just has to be done.

If you want to do a pay it forward deal, more power to you! Spread it around!

Ok, to the specifics.

This new sling has my milspec nylon webbing from end to end, which means in an emergency, if you need to use the 550, you still have a sling. Additional benefits include

-more flexibility and comfort

-lighter weight

-easier to make (and I could train employees to do it!)

-faster to make

Downsides-

-I dont like it as much

-more expensive to make

-not as cool looking

I guess I can get over most of the downsides...

The sling is also a prototype for a 1.5 point sling. It is a failed prototype. If you want to use it as a one point and give me advice on how to make it better (as a 1.5), please do, but mostly, I want to know how YOU think it compares to my old stuff.

On to the photos!!!

I apologize for the ugly buckle. Whoever made this as "od green" needs to be back handed and fired. I am glad I got it as a sample... BUT! It is top quality.

Winner will be chosen at random from those who qualify.

I'm not going to enter since I know I won't put it through its paces like some of these other guys will, but I'm curious if this design has less cord in it? I think it still looks good.

Since 19,3,13,20 and 7 are now taken, I will further take 1,2,4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18...

 

 

All numbers covered now. 

 

 

And you didn't say we couldn't enter more than once...  <lmao>

 

Who was closest on either side - of the numbers I didn't take?  I need to know who to send it to after I've used and abused it...  :hethan:

Hey guys, sorry its been awhile since i checked in... the number was 7! I use 7 for everything, but now that the secret is out, ill have to get more creative. I liked the thinking on your guess of 11 though DNP!

Ill get the sling out tomorrow. Thanks guys!

Congrats .308Litehunter....

 

I am still wearing my original one on the MP5 and although it doesn't get the workout the MK18 does, it ain't babied.  I am still trying to break those plastic pieces   >:D ....so far they are holding up..ahem.....so far.  

 

I D&S with the MP5 sometimes and I haven't lost it yet........yet.

I know....LOL.  If it actually break and I lose a weapon, I will spend my time on the bricks drinking bourbon helping you build slings to replace my lost income....  :ifly:  <lmao>

Drinking and weaving could yield some interesting patterns, just like the spiders on drugs.
