I put the tactical sling (with swivels) from
UNCLE MIKE'S on my 590. the opening snap converts from carry sling to hasty sling.I really like this sling on my shotgun. |

PADDY,
You should have a look at the "Hopson Sling." It does what you're looking for and more. It is a 'tactical sling' hanging down in front of your body for transitions, etc., but it can also be configured to function as a conventional carry strap for African and American carry. It may also be used in 'backpack' carry mode. It comes complete with Uncle Mike's QD swivels. The sling sells for $40. You may contact Cecil Hopson direct. He is the inventor, patent holder, and manufacturor. Phone: 423-638-3546 |

No website as of yet.
The sling works much like an HK sling except it uses standard Uncle Mike's hardware. |
