M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW)
Special Operations Patrol (SOP) Sling

 

Due to overwhelming demand for something more useful than the primitive 2 point carry strap currently in service, we've designed a special variant of the Special Operations Patrol (SOP) 3 Point Tactical Sling specifically for the M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW).

The SAW SOP Sling possesses all of the same features and functional abilities of the standard SOP Sling. However, we've added several features to meet the unique demands of this particular weapons system. First off, we've added a removable and adjustable 2" wide x 3/8" thick EVA foam shoulder pad for additional comfort. Secondly, we use heavy duty, all steel, mil-spec  snap hooks at the front and rear attachment points to interface with the existing ring mounts on the M-249, which allows the sling to be removed or attached in just seconds. Lastly, we use all steel tri-glides to ensure the weight of the weapon will not cause a hardware failure. In short, this is the most heavy duty sling system we've ever designed.

SAW SOP Sling adjusted so that it hangs perfectly in the underarm firing position with the TRB locked in. Now, just hit the TRB release and you can shoulder fire with ease.


The SAW SOP Sling is an ambidextrous design. Therefore, no left or right hand versions are required. These slings are currently available in Black, Olive Drab or Coyote Tan.


Note: The ERB Option is not available on this sling
