Description
Larry Vickers put his name on this design for a reason. The Blue Force Gear Vickers Push Button Sling takes the combat-proven Vickers Combat Applications Sling and pairs it with captive push button QD swivels, so you get a clean, no-fuss setup on any rifle that has push button sockets front and rear. It runs 1.25 inches wide in tough Invista solution-dyed CORDURA webbing, adjusts across a 36 to 62 inch range, and weighs next to nothing on the shoulder.
What Sets the Vickers Push Button Sling Apart
The headliner here is the patented Quick Adjuster. Give the pull tab a yank and the sling cinches your rifle tight to your body for a hands-free carry, then pull the other way and it opens right back up for a natural shooting position. There are no clips, springs, or moving parts to snag or fail, which is a big part of why this platform has been trusted by over 500,000 Marines, Soldiers, and Airmen. The 1 inch push button swivel is sewn to the front and a 1.25 inch swivel sits captive at the rear, so nothing walks off or gets misconfigured in the field.
Hardware That Earns Its Keep
The swivels and adjuster are built from glass-reinforced DuPont Zytel nylon, which is lighter and more flexible than the old-school plastic hardware while staying plenty strong for anything a weapon sling sees. That nylon hardware is the same style found on the majority of BFG slings shipped to the US military, so you are getting the real deal, not a watered-down commercial version. Everything is sewn stateside with the reinforced stitching Blue Force Gear is known for.
Where the Coyote Vickers Sling Fits In
This one is aimed squarely at rifles and carbines already wearing QD sockets, which covers a huge chunk of modern AR platforms and premium bolt guns. Before you order, do a quick check that your rifle has push button sockets at both the front and rear. If it does, this is about as simple and dependable as a two-point sling gets, and the Coyote Brown color plays nice with just about any setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of rifle does the Vickers Push Button Sling work with?
It is built for weapons that have push button QD sling swivel sockets at both the front and rear. That covers a large number of modern AR-style carbines and many premium rifles that ship with QD cups from the factory. Before ordering, take a second to confirm your rifle has sockets on both ends so the swivels have something to click into.
Are the push button swivels removable on this sling?
No, and that is by design. The front swivel is sewn in and the rear swivel is captive to the sling, which keeps them from getting lost or the sling from being set up wrong. You just push the button, seat the swivel in your socket, and you are ready to go.
Is this the padded version of the Vickers sling?
This SKU is the standard unpadded Push Button Vickers Sling. It uses the same combat-proven webbing and Quick Adjuster, just without the mid-section shoulder pad. If you want extra cushion for heavy rifles or long days, Blue Force Gear offers a padded push button version separately.
How does the Quick Adjuster actually work?
The Quick Adjuster lets you change the sling length on the fly with a simple pull of the tab, no buckles or hardware to fumble with. Cinch it down and the rifle rides tight to your body for hands-free carry, then loosen it and the sling opens up into a comfortable shooting position. There are no springs, clips, or moving parts, so there is nothing to jam up on you.
