Basic Carry Sling

Description

Just what the name would imply, the Basic Carry Sling is a simple carry sling made from our proprietary 1.25″ rugged sling webbing and heavy-duty Delrin buckles. Available with a variety of US-made GrovTec sling swivels, HK-style snaphooks, or just with the included buckle-end to fit your existing 1.25″ swivels.

Top quality materials

Like all Wilderness Tactical products, this sling is manufactured at our Phoenix, Arizona facility to exceptionally high standards of design and construction from the best materials available. It is made of 1.25″ extra-heavy nylon webbing (supports weight much better than 1″) and our custom extra-heavy duty black non-glare Delrin hardware. We make every effort to use buckles and attachments that are unlikely to make noise or reflect light.

Our premium webbing is much more dense and rigid than typical cheap webbing. It is custom-made to our standards for rigidity, vertical cross-grain structure and durability. It has no resin (which many manufacturers use to initially stiffen webbing) which can break down or change in use. While perhaps not as comfortable as soft webbing, professional users have stressed to us repeatedly that utility and durability matter most. Our webbing holds its form well, unlike soft, wide webbing which tends to roll up into a rope-like shape with extended use. The stiffness also makes getting into or out of the sling easier. It holds up much better under rough, sandy field conditions that eat soft, shapeless webbing over time.

As always, connections are multi-stitched and backstitched using proven rescue-industry stitch patterns, and a polyester blend thread is used instead of nylon which degrades more quickly under UV exposure.We pay more to use the best materials, and choose to use the most appropriate materials for each component, but we don’t think you would want it any other way.
