BREN sling?
« on: May 25, 2016, 02:09:16 PM »
Anyone have any slings they like to use with the new BREN S1 Carbine, and why?

Hey Amigo,


Before owning the Bren, I've never had  3 point slings and thought they were just an unnecessary complication. However, because of the weight of this firearm, the second point of attachment helps in limiting the movement (sliding) or see-sawing of the firearm once slung on your body (that was difficult to describe). For this reason, the OEM 3 point sling can be useful. Of course, there are disadvantages to a three point sling.....shifting the firearm quickly from right to left shooting positions can be cumbersome.

I have never used one and have no idea what is a good one or how to set it up. :( I do have the factory sling for the Scorpion - that might work. It has enough attachments, buckles, sliders and what not to qualify as climbing gear...
