Blue Force Gear Vickers Standard AK Sling

Engineered specifically for the demands of AK-47, AK-74, and other AKM-pattern rifles, the Blue Force Gear Vickers Standard AK Sling brings the combat-proven quick-adjust technology of the legendary Vickers Sling to the world’s most prolific small arm. This two-point tactical sling provides secure, all-day weapon retention while enabling lightning-fast transitions to a shouldered firing position without loose tails or fragile components that can snag or fail.

Key Features

• Instant Adjustability: Features a shortened, value-engineered pull tab that allows one-handed lengthening or shortening in seconds, maintaining the same reliable performance that has made the Vickers platform a military favorite with over 500,000 units in service.
• AK-Specific Front Attachment: Includes a Molded Universal Wire Loop (UWL) with nylon-coated aircraft-grade stainless steel cable that threads securely and quietly through the elongated eyelet on the handguard retainer or gas block; also compatible with routing under the gas tube for left-handed shooters and removable for custom setups.
• Versatile Rear Attachment: Dual triglides accommodate fixed, folding, wire, and polymer stocks for broad compatibility across AK variants.
• Durable Construction: Built with 1.25-inch solution-dyed CORDURA webbing and glass-reinforced DuPont Zytel nylon hardware that is quiet, lightweight, and exceptionally strong.
