A firearm sling includes a shooting rest. The shooting rest may include a bifurcated cavity filled with deformable media. The bifurcated cavity defines a trough along at least a portion of a length of the shooting rest. The firearm sling may be coupled to a firearm to facilitate carrying the firearm over a shoulder or across a torso, the shooting rest providing padding for comfort in carrying the firearm as well as a support for the firearm to improve marksmanship.

The disclosure provides a sling adjustment for increased reliability and performance compared to conventional cam and slide adjustments. The disclosed sling adjustment is a single hardware piece that includes a slider and a cam. The sling adjustment includes an antilock wedge to prevent or at least reduce binding when using the sliding feature in the tightening direction. Extruded pins are also disclosed that can reduce the cost and the number of components that are needed for reliable performance. In one example, the sling adjustment includes: (1) a slider having a pair of side walls, and (2) a cam, positioned within the pair of side walls, having an antilock wedge and a center slider bar, wherein the antilock wedge is located on a forward side of the center slider bar.

A firearm strap buckle assembly includes an inlet end portion and an outlet end portion. A main tensioner bar is medially located within the buckle assembly and having upward facing surface of a first width and a downward facing surface of a second width greater than the first width. A first supporting tensioner bar is located between the inlet end and the main tensioner bar. A second supporting tensioner bar is located between the main tensioner bar and the outlet end. A first strap path is defined where the strap is positioned downwardly of the main tensioner bar. A second strap path is defined where the strap is positioned upwardly of the main tensioner bar. Frictional forces imparted to the strap when arranged within the first strap path are greater than frictional forces imparted to the strap when arranged within the second path strap.

A firearm support system includes a receiver body comprising an upper wall comprising a strap slot and a strap carried by a strap bar, the strap being configured for passage through the strap slot and the strap bar being configured to be received within the strap slot.

Provided is a hands-free long-gun carrying device having a support plate supported at a user's chest and a gripping structure on the support plate configured to releasably engage and support a long-gun in a ready position. The gripping structure includes first and second jaw members substantially open toward a front direction. At least one of the jaw members is resiliently deflectable to receive and grip a porting of a long-gun inserted between the jaw members.

Described herein is an adapter for converting a single sling mount to dual-sling mount. The adapter comprises a body having a modified “H” configuration with two opposing legs joined to two outwardly extending arms. The two opposing legs each have a transverse bore linearly aligned with one another. Each outwardly extending arm also has a transverse bore. The resulting gun sling assembly allows one to carry the gun across one's back in a backpack fashion. An adapter having a modified “Y” configuration allows one to carry a military-style gun across one's back in a backpack fashion.

Disclosed is a sling system comprising a sling used to carry a firearm, a bag used to conceal the firearm attached to the sling, and a release device used to releasably attach the bag to the sling. In this way, a user can discreetly transport the firearm while maintaining the ability to rapidly deploy the firearm by simply detaching the bag concealing it.

A firearm sling attachment device is presented. According to an embodiment, a sling attachment device comprises a quick detach receiver and a cord. The quick-detach receiver includes: a body elongated longitudinally along a first axis and having first and second ends oppositely positioned along the first axis; an open-faced, cylindrical cavity formed in the first end of the body and extending longitudinally along the first axis, the cavity including one or more recesses arranged circumferentially in a side wall of the cavity; and an opening formed laterally through the second end of the body along a second axis that is perpendicular to the first axis. The cord is detachably affixed to the quick-detach receiver through the opening.

Systems and methods for coupling different types of firearm sling swivels to a variety of detachable slings are provided. In one embodiment, the sling adapter includes an adapter subassembly, a first loop channel, a second loop channel and a strap. The adapter subassembly includes a pin and an adapter body with a pin hole and a swivel hole. The pin is inserted into the pin hole of the adapter body. The swivel hole securely accommodates a detachable firearm's sling. The strap includes a first loop segment, a first pin segment, a second loop segment, a swivel segment, a third loop segment, a second pin segment and a fourth loop segment.

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.
