Blue Force Gear Vickers Padded Sling | Combat-Ready Comfort & Speed
Built for Warfighters. Trusted Everywhere.
The Blue Force Gear Vickers Padded Sling is the standard by which all modern rifle slings are measured. Co-designed with Larry Vickers, this padded variant delivers the same combat-proven quick adjustability with an added layer of comfort via its 2” inline closed-cell foam pad. The design keeps weight balanced and pressure off your shoulder... no water retention, no shifting.
A patented Quick Adjuster tab lets you transition instantly from secure carry to ready-to-fire with a single pull. No fumbling. No slack to manage. Whether you’re running it slick or adding hardware for QD or HK hook setups, this sling is versatile, durable, and made in the USA.

The Quick Adjuster - Contrasting Pull Tab
Able to quickly transition from carrying a slung rifle comfortably to combat ready, the patent pending Quick Adjuster has bridged the gap between the two primary uses of weapon slings – from transporting to fighting. All Vickers Padded Slings™ are built with precision and pride right here at home in the US with superior materials.
Attachment Hardware Sold Separately
The Vickers Padded Sling attaches directly to fixed loop firearm attachment systems. Additional hardware can be purchased and added to the front and backend of the sling for more firearm attachment methods.
Adjuster & Triglides Build
Nylon Hardware: The all new Nylon Hardware version features all newly designed DuPont Zytel® nylon - which is lighter, stronger, and more flexible than traditional plastic sling hardware. The majority of the BFG slings shipped to the US Military feature Nylon Hardware.
Metal Hardware: The Metal Hardware version of the Vickers Padded Sling features a machined aluminum Adjuster that is hardcoat anodized matte black and combined with phosphated steel trigldides. The Metal Hardware slings provide more strength than will ever be needed in a weapon sling - perfect for those apocalypse guns and the “all metal” type of shooters.
Comfortable Padding
The 2” inline pad doesn’t move up or down the sling and is made from closed cell foam that won’t separate or gain water weight.
