OEM? Slings for the Bren and Evo

Just got the slings from Petr, OEM I think. Still have to figure out how to put on the Bren sling properly.

The Scorpion sling certainly looks like the OEM I have seen. Was told at the CZUB store that for a right hand shooter, it is recommended to move the reciprocating operating handle on the Bren 805 over to the right side of the receiver. Congrats on the duo.

Really? Might have to try that. I don't have a dedicated sling for the BREN yet, but I have something laying about I can use. It took me a long time to get the CZ supplied sling for the Scorpion to get anywhere close to working - too many buckles attachments and such for this old guy. I'm wondering if I could get in touch with a Czech Army sergeant and see if they can explain it! :D

Petr's eBay ad has a picture that I expanded and I think I was able to follow how the sling "slung" through the hoops!

Here's a pic....am not sure if this is correct but it works.

Too much weight for me. All I want is an old cheap vertical grip.

I hear ya. Took it to range the other day and I could not finish off a 30 rounder without putting it down midway. The lucid may have to go, the light too, and I need to really exercise!

Not a fan of 3 point slings.  Really suprised that's what the Czech's issue actually...
