Embodiments of the disclosure are directed to a rapid adjust buckle for a rifle sling. The buckle can include a main buckle portion with a pair of side portions and a handle portion extending between the pair of side portions and over the main buckle portion to define a handle aperture. In various embodiments the handle portion and the main buckle portion are a unitary piece composed of a polymer material with the handle portion being flexibly biased towards an uncompressed open shape such that the handle portion is configured to compress against the main buckle portion in response to a compressing force but return to the uncompressed open shape when the compressing force is relieved. In one or more embodiments the handle portion includes a plurality of jointed connection points configured to flatten the profile of the handle portion when the handle portion is exposed to the compressing force.

A sling apparatus that improves user comfort and weapon stabilization and that can be easily converted to and from single-point configuration, two-point configuration, and body armor configuration. The configuration flexibility and ease of conversion allows the user to tailor the sling apparatus to user preferences or environment. In any configuration, the sling improves the user's ability to stabilize the weapon, enhances the comfort of the user, secures the weapon more tightly to the user's body for increased weapon control, and provides an integrated source of paracord that can be utilized in emergency situations.

A system and method for a call carrier. The carrier has an elongate both which has a left distal end and a right distal end. A closing element secures the left distal end with the right distal end. There is a flap which can hinge open and closed. When the flap is in the closed position it is adjacent to an insert which has at least one pocket. The pocket can be used to house a call. The carrier can be wrapped about a bugle tube allowing a user to carry one or more calls to be used with the bugle tube.

Sling sliders have a body defining an elongated sling strap passage configured to receive an elongated sling strap, the elongated sling strap passage defined at least in part by an elongated bar having opposed ends, the elongated bar defining an elongated cord passage extending between the opposed ends of the elongated bar, a cord received in the elongated cord passage, and the cord having a received portion within the elongated cord passage and a handle portion extending outside the elongated cord passage such that the handle portion operates to exert a motive force on the body. The sling slider may be a triglide. The body may have three parallel bars, and the elongated bar defining the elongated cord passage may be positioned between a second bar and a third bar. The body may define a pair of elongated sling strap passages on opposite sides of the elongated bar.

A rifle sling is provided for use with a shooting adapter for a firearm. The rifle sling comprises a first portion having a forward end including a first attachment facility configured for attachment to a forward portion of a rifle, and a second portion having a rear end including a second attachment facility configured for attachment to a rear portion of a rifle. Further, a connector is configured to removable connect the first and second portion, the connector includes three parallel bars collectively defining two elongated slots. One of the slots has a lateral opening at a slots end, the opening is configured to removably retain a strap and to permit removal and insertion of an intermediate portion of the strap.

A quick-disconnect (QD) sling swivel includes a main body receivable in a socket on a firearm, a locking mechanism coupled to the main body, and an actuation mechanism coupled to the locking mechanism and depressible in a direction generally perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the QD sling swivel. When the actuation mechanism is depressed, the locking mechanism is in a first position such that the main body is decouplable from and is freely movable in and out of the socket. When the at least one actuation button is not depressed with a portion of the main body received in the socket, the locking mechanism is in a second position such that the main body is interlockingly received in the socket with the locking mechanism engaged therewith.

A sling that can be attached to any rifle, long gun or case, with a single main section of webbing running the entire length of the sling, routed through a linearly moveable quick release buckle, then looped through an oval ring fixed to one end of the sling, back through another oval ring attached to the quick release buckle and back towards the fixed oval ring to form a compound S-shaped adjustment loop with three layers of webbing, laying one on top of the other, giving the sling additional length when expanded, while also enabling it to be fully retracted. The quick release buckle can linearly move along the full length of the sling with the quick and easy manipulation of the buckle.

A sling attachment device has a body having a strap facility adapted for attachment of a sling strap, a flexible elongated tether having a first end attached to the body, the tether having a free end opposite the first end, and the body defining a receptacle operable to receive the free end of the tether, such that the tether may be threaded through an aperture on a rifle and received by the receptacle to secure the strap to the rifle. The tether may have a selected first width along at least a portion of its length, and the free end may have a second width greater than the first width. A ball may be attached to the free end. The body may define a channel having a width larger than the first width and smaller than the second width. There may be an aperture adjacent to the channel.

This disclosure extends to systems, apparatus, and methods for the rapid deployment of a sling or strap on a rifle, firearm, tool, or implement from a storage mode to a deployment mode in a reliable and repeatable manner, while minimizing snagging, binding or tangling during storage or transport. In one exemplary system in accordance with the teachings of the present disclosure, a capture device may include a single closed loop interface adjacent to an open interface. A first strap may be looped through the closed interface and secured therein. Another portion of the sling system, such as a loop of strap or webbing may be secured by tensioning in the open interface to tightly secure the system against the rifle or tool in a secured position. By slightly loosening the loop, the secured portion can exit the open interface rapidly as the sling is deployed.

A sling clip has a clamping mechanism capable of releasably securing a weapon strap when the strap is slidably received through an opening in the sling clip. The sling clip also has a let strap assembly configured to secure the sling clip proximate to a weapon bearer's body. The leg strap assembly incorporates Pouch Attachment Ladder System (PALS) compatible loops, a secondary belt fastener, and a pair of cantilevered arms that retain the sling clip. The clamping mechanism is operatively configured to secure the strap within the sling clip and thereby to the weapon bearer's body when the weapon is in a firing position and during firing.
