what's going on guys Travis Kennedy here owner kind of defensive solutions this video I'm going to talk about rifle sling specifically single point versus dual point sling setup let's go [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] all right first thing sling on my tuck John is the single point sling this is a sling that I use most of the time specifically this sling right here is a single two dual point sling all right sematic pull sling I really like this thing understand that there's limitations to both this is a dual point sling this is a v-tach dual point sling okay I was retention here it could tighten it loosen it etc but first time I talked John the single point sling okay it has limitations as pros the biggest Pro I find is maneuverability with the weapon the efficiency how I can move it freely without any obstructions with the dual point sling basically kind of its downfall is the lack of retention that the dual point sling offers however for me the one I reason I like the Magpul one is clips on tight has a locking mechanism here so if I were to bump it at all it doesn't come off also this piece if I wanted to switch it to dual point I can't just unlock it here and I could just clip it on to my rail system right here the Picatinny rail attachment for my sling now of a dual point sling setup so I have the versatility of both best of both worlds okay most of my stuff for most of my drill especially if you're law enforcement or military and you're doing close quarters combat I think my preference my experience my background the single point sling comes into play it's more versatile moving through a dynamic situation it Lee especially if I wanted to switch shoulders I could switch shoulders very easily here switch back I could transition easily if I'm transitioning my pistol bring my rifle back up smooth without any obstructions whatsoever if I were to use a single point excuse me a dual point sling however where I see limitations of this is the ability to retain it okay if you don't have any type of retention system then this gun is just freely flop it could be flopping around if I were to have to take put hands on somebody I have to move the rifle out of the way now it's just dangling without any type of retention that could be cumbersome if I were to have to climb over something then I would have to have the ability to retain it my experience in the past is if I'm wearing body armor with a plate carrier etc I'll put it to my side I would have a bungee attachment I'll just bungee it which it would just Bunge it to my side right here as well okay but the beauty of this single the dual point sling so I wanted just to hear I could put my if I want to put it behind my back I can I can just put it right here and I just tighten it and I can just now it's slung on my back till point sling okay highly recommend this one okay here come back now I want the versatility of the single point I have it now make sure you lock these things put your arm back through it now you're set and people ask me hey how do you set this thing up what a stock attachment you use our sling attachment to use and I use this against Magpul mbx our sling this thing free floats behind the buttstock a lot of times they're out there they had the fixed ones where it just stays in one position this one I find easy this one's nice maneuvers freely no obstructions whatsoever easy to switch shoulders easy weapon and manipulation that's why I love this thing and I noticed with this model specifically the Magpul sling that if we do have a fixed sling attachment point where they're hard these things tend to wear okay and I've I've done in the past where it's worn out so bad every time I clipped it on and wasn't fully locked and the rifle will fall off so just be cognizant of that I highly recommend this thing I'll put links below to all this kit so you can look at it yourself and check it out as well okay now the dual point sling this is the VTech Viking sling okay very standard sling okay you could tighten it here it tightens the sling or this piece you just loosen and loosens the sling okay how I like to set up with my rifle dual point sling a lot of times you'll see people up here with QD mounts they clip it up to the stock and the rail I like to put it behind into the same place I put my single point sling because I just like it's my slings to be a little bit tighter as well and I just use these I don't have QD mounts if you have a PD mounts Oh everything's the same okay this is a different attachment point here clip it on now it's ready to go now for me like I said I like my slings a little bit tighter okay so when I go to present here I use my slim and kind of bear down against now that's more control over this rifle as well if it's nice and tight okay I can engage here where this comes into play the pros for these two the dual point sling is weapon retention is great does offer some stability when a rapid firing expending on how tight you like it especially if I need to go off gun and then you put hands on somebody I could do that to come off here but I like to do put it under my right arm and then I just go ahead and I can tighten it down behind my back and that's what I like to do that's from my experience tighten it down right here now I could put hands on somebody if I have to all right from going through prisoner handling you're come from procedures or if I need to climb over an obstacle I just go ahead secure it to my back I use these a lot of a lot of maritime operations and my experience or land warfare setting where I'm traveling or hiking or moving on a far distance I'm using the dual point sling that's why I fall back into the single to do point that has that versatility that way I want to keep switching out slings how I loosen this thing here I just loosen it that just loosens up I could go back and to put my put it underneath my right arm our excuse my left arm armpit okay keep in mind all right when I I like to have it to my stock look at my stocks that just kind of near the notch of my on my sternal notch here that offers me good maneuverability good flex a flexibility with a gun okay when I go to present it's all nice and tight when I lift up the gun here it already falls in line in my shoulder pocket right here there's not a lot of travel and I love space I want to go to present right there high ready everything's nice and tight where I could punch out a little bit gives me a little bit of clearance here not too much clear it's not too loose just enough to lift up cheek weld drive it back into position here low ready I can drive it up okay so understand the pros and cons for these two slings my personal preference a lot of people ask me why do you like to do there is why I'm my go-to is always this sling here because off offers me best of both worlds especially for retention that's in the bottom line for me is with the kind of the main difference between single and dual is the retention abilities what I'm adding when you're training out here in the flat kind of flat range working a weapon manipulation drills combat shooting my preference is is this and a lot of times what my experience is I switched over based off mission based off environment so it all kind of mission dictated how I like to run my slings and but I was attuned to both okay don't if you want to switch it up make sure you're trained to both and you know eat how each sling operates and the limitations of each and the pros of both slinks all right all right we're gonna go out and test these out we're gonna go out and try we're gonna shoot with both of them so you guys can get a visual on the pros and cons of each okay now we're gonna go over show you guys a few drills just watch me how I manipulate with this this is the using the dual point sling okay so that way you guys could get a visual on how each how the weapon fall especially when I do transitions so just watch here I'm doing hi ready punch out here already [Music] transition and the rifle up so it's Paul's in a little difference it falls a little higher for me especially with the dual point versus the the single point okay I go to lift it ups a little different cuz now I got this sling kind of in the way white as far we're just use the single points this up there now I can grab the magwell kind of freely without this obstruction realize that okay bring the rifle up one more time say fit rifle up so here what I'm switching shoulders with this thing punch out you'll see you guys here reach up they put their left hand through the sling cuz they can't do it otherwise come around their face come back safe it and they can put their hand back through again with the single point you don't have to do that you can just easily freely maneuver back and forth that's one of the reasons why I like the single point because of the versatility and we're time fire I want to switch shoulders right hand goes up to the mag wall I slide my left hand through dip it forward now I'm free and clearly come back I could put my arm through it again okay show you the limitations with the the mag change so sometimes with longer rifles you see people with the sling attachment way up here why I like it further back is now that I don't have to worry about the sling get in my way when I go for the mag change no instructions whatsoever okay so it's gonna look like this get bolt lock come back now release get the mag out see now it's really not in my way whatsoever here okay and tug rotate over back on more time with the transition here save it bring the rifle back up see right here see another thing they peek on except with the dual point sling is when you bring the rifle back up you have to really get it out of the way here all right if I don't clear it look it's going to start catching on my neck catch it in here we don't want that how I do this it's the same way for a single point as well dip it to the sahte to the right or I'm a right-handed shooter so either way opposite if you're left-handed shooter and then bring up the rifle here all right so now let's let's take a look at a single point sling all right so now I have on the single point sling now the single to dual point sling I'm going to show you some drills on how the weapon manipulates and moves with the single point sling this is my favorite sling to do these combat drills okay just going from the high ready here punch out here if I want to transition falls falls freely watch how I bring the rifle back up again it's a lot easier than the dual point sling just dip and rotates over specifically with this ambidextrous sling attachment the gun just moves freely it's easy very easy maneuver so I'm going to switch shoulders just watch I switch all I got to do is dip right there don't worry about moving my swimming my left arm through a sling at all here bring it back it's all right there don't have to worry about doing this so it's much more fat it's a lot faster it's a lot more fluid that's why I like it watch some of the limitation I go to transition here here I let now now just dangles it when I let go of it now it's just dangling possibly hit myself in the groin that doesn't feel good here for whatever reason if I have to maneuver it around my back again if I have to walk now it's just now just dangling here moving around kind of floppy which is kind of it's we don't like that you know if you're a shooters wheel we don't want that they do make belt attachments like I said if you didn't have a piece of bungee they do make belt attaches where this is kind of falls in line it's like a little hook and it holds it right there for you all right I'll put a link below so you guys can check that out as well interesting piece of kit I've used it before it does come in handy time in place if it's applicable to you and your training more time switch shoulders back here show you the mag change okay now I really don't have any type of obstruction whatsoever because this slings all back here okay now it's nice and smooth mag in touch real a lot more fluid a lot faster a lot I'm just a lot more personally comfortable with the single point sling not to say that one is better than the other just try it out yourself try Bowl see what you like or I recommend have both own both slings and working both throughout your training so you become proficient with both slings and hell if you want to one-stop shop just get one of these and now I can just clip it now I'm I'm done now the dual point sling that easy yeah you want to buy multiple slings whatsoever try those out work both sling systems comment below let me know what you think whether you like the single whether you like the dual point sling I do offer some online training hanger basics check it out put the link below as well please click like and subscribe let me know what you think trained safe teams [Music] [Music]
