AR-15 Paracord Sling

[Dbeasley2771]

Hey guys! I wanted to get your thoughts on this two point AR-15 paracord sling. It has over 100 ft of paracord on it. It also has a adjustable nylon section. I put two 1" hook snaps on this one, but it could easily be customized with anything else. Let me know what you think

Looks good. How does it feel? Any stretch or bounce to it?

No not really. I tried to make it as sturdy as possible, so I tied it pretty tightly. I guess I could make it looser and then it would have more of a bend to it. Paracord doesn't really stretch, but I guarantee it's definitely one of the heaviest duty slings out there.

You should market that. I would buy one.

I bought a one at the last Kokomo show that looks just like that. The guy had single point and two point models. I picked up the single and wish I had gotten the two point model. Oh well their is always another show.

Just curious, how much were the one and two point models?

Looks real good and practical. If you decide to sell them, I'd like a price on a 2 point.

I made a Rattail? sling like that for my M4 in Iraq. It worked well enough

I paid something like $25 for the single point. I don't remember the price on the 2 point.

 

[Dbeasley2771]

Ok thanks for the info. I was thinking of making some different models any suggestions

Wasn't trying to be a jerk

Those look pretty awesome. Perhaps a brown and green or something for people to use on hunting rifles

 

[Dbeasley2771]

No I understand and ya there are over 200 colors to choose from. I'm pretty happy with it. I just wanted to see what other people thought about it.

Hey should I add a spandex covering for the hooks?

Yes.

Not to rain on anyone's parade, and it looks cool, but what happens when you have to use your sling for any of the numerous uses paracord provides?

I picked up a 2 point from the kid at the Kokomo show last year. Nice piece of work.

Buy a new sling.

Lol, well yeah... I guess I'm always thinking practical in the SHTF sense. It's totally kick %$#, and I love the look, but I doubt it's something many would want to carry in a time of actual need.

 

[Dbeasley2771]

Yeah there's over 100ft over paracord in this sling so if you had to ever use it, there would be plenty of paracord. However, I agree with SERparacord. Just keep some with you at all times. I wouldn't want to have to take the sling apart. Too much work involved
