Title: Good sling with one handed quick adjust?
Post by: tbowers on June 02, 2025, 12:39:27 PM
I've done some searching but havent come across much. The main thing I want in a sling is the ability to quickly tighten it up, so it doesnt flop when I'm setup on a bird. Something like what the majority of the two point tactical slings have. I've been looking a the Quake sling, but I cant determine how 'quick' it is to adjust the length on it. I suppose I can get a tactical one and swap out the hooks for swivels too.

Any suggestions?

I have one of these butler creeks on every shotgun and rifle I own. They are cheap, bullet proof and good quality. They will adjust quickly, with one hand, but require some breaking in. I just sit with it on the couch and adjust it over and over until it slides easily.

The claw slings are super heavy and clunky in my opinion.

The slide adjustment on the Claw sling moves pretty easily to adjust it, you can easily pull it snug. But they come with quick disconnect swivels, when I sit down on a bird I just disconnect the front swivel and drape the sling next to me.

I get that guys remove them when setup, or unhook the front. I'm not interested in that at this point. Fiddle factor is there regardless

Those do look nice. To make for quicker adjustment, i probably could put a small cord or something around the buckle too

The quake slimline is very quick and easy to adjust.

She just started sewing in a non-slip mesh also that doesn't slide off your shoulder easily either, I really like mine and plan on getting a few more

Claw contour for me, stays on your shoulder and easily adjusts.

I have a Claw on every gun I own. I also remove it when I set up on a turkey.

I do as well including my deer rifles as do both of my sons. I see no need to ever remove them. Seeems unnecessary

I agree. I don't see the point. To each his own but I've never figured out why you'd even want to remove it. I like using it as a cushion while the gun tests on knee lol
