Our Defense Mechanisms Rifle Sling Pad is a simple solution to add comfort to our Rifle Sling. Elastic keepers along the length of the sling pad allow simple storage against the side of your rifle. This keeps the sling from getting tangled while in vehicles or tight spaces and allows rapid deployment when the sling is needed. While the sling is stored full AR-15 fire controls can still be used. Our sling pad is offered in a traditional straight configuration for use by either right or left handed shooters or in a curved configuration setup specifically for left or right handed shooters. Though it works best with our rifle sling, you can use this pad with many 1″ wide 2 point slings.
