Developed with industry friend, firearms expert, and former 1st SFOD- Delta operational member Larry Vickers, the Vickers Combat Applications Sling™ incorporates key features from real world experience that makes the sling effective and durable - the choice sling requested by name. The Vickers Combat Applications Sling™ has been our most popular product of all- with service in every branch of service here at home as well as several foreign militaries.
Able to quickly transition from carrying a slung rifle comfortably to combat ready, the patent pending Quick Adjust has bridged the gap between the two primary uses of weapon slings – from transporting to fighting. All VCAS™ Slings are built with precision and pride right here at home in the US with superior materials.
To provide greater versatility, no attachment hardware is included but can still be threaded through existing slings loops. This sling combined with any variation of hardware the Sling Hardware section enables this sling to attach to almost any weapon.
Vickers Combat Applications Sling™ is available in two hardware options - Acetal, a low IR military grade plastic or machined aluminum.
As with all Blue Force Gear, it is made with excellence in the USA and carries a limited lifetime warranty.

Just purchased my 4th padded sling. First one in Coyote from a store. Then one black and one ATACS from this website. And the latest one in ATACS from Spec Ops Outfitters (since you can’t get ATACS direct from BFG any more). Unlike one of the other reviewers who find the sling slightly too long, I find it slightly too short but clearly the positives on this sling outweigh that issue. The material of this sling is exceptionally high quality and construction is well thought out. Stitching is strong, adjustment is easy, quality is evident in every aspect of this sling. The colors are true to the design (ATACS & Coyote) and all of the colors are vivid and have not had any fading issues. Also the colors are accurately depicted on this website. The acetal is indeed quiet and won’t scratch your weapon. Some folks have indicated they got the padded design for heavier ARs – I just got the padded version because it’s super comfortable and protects my shoulder during long sessions. This is the only sling I use now and I highly recommend it. Note to anyone looking for ATACS: Apparently the rights to the ATACS pattern have been sold, so BFG can make them but not sell them and they are not very easy to find (as of Jan 2012). Before you buy from any online distributer make sure you VERIFY that they actually have them in stock (i.e. call them; don’t believe the website when it says “in stock”).

Yes ATACS is available exclusively through AmChar Wholesale. Ask your local dealer if they can get them through AmChar or call AmChar and ask for the closest BFG Stocking Dealer. Glad you liked it!

I use this sling with my Colt M4 Match Target Carbine. I should first say that I am a right handed shooter and use a sling adaptor for my quad-rail system that is set as close to the reciever as possible and I have a sling point on the end of the reciever. The sling works as advertised, the quick adjustor is phenomenal. The sling fully adjusted without any gear on is slightly too long, but nothing major and nothing I can't deal with. The only changes I would make would be to shorten the sling and add a Mamba style elastic stretchy thing that doesn't interfere with the quick slide and probably add something that grips a little better on the bottom of the padded portion. Overall this is a great sling that dramastically improves transition from either right to left shooting and transition to a secondary weapon. Well done, Blue Force, well done.

I am using this sling with my S&W M&P 15 MOE. The soft nylon webbing is outstanding. This sling is very comfortable and can be adjusted to hold your carbine close to your body for hands free movement. A great piece of gear and the service from Blue Force is absolutely the best. Very nice people to deal with!

I bought this sling for my Rock River LAR 15/ M-4 pattern rifle. The gun has a heavy barrel and some weighty accessories so I decided to upgrade from the standard Vickers CAP sling to the padded version. While I like the padded part and feel it supports the rifle nicely I am having issues getting it to fit just right. The tri glide fastener binds between my stock and face causing discomfort. I am considering cutting off the extra length and stitching on a push button sling attachment but I am reluctant to modify this new sling.
