BLUE FORCE VICKERS 221 PADDED SLING - QD - PB - 1 POINT / 2 POINT - MULTICAM
The Blue Force Gear Vickers 221 Padded Sling in Multicam delivers the best of both worlds — the stability of a 2-point sling and the maneuverability of a 1-point — in a single, field-proven design built for serious shooters.
- Instantly converts between 1-point and 2-point configurations without tools
- Patented RED™ Swivel enables rapid, one-handed mode switching under pressure
- New polymer Burnsed Socket locks rear attachment securely at the receiver
- Push-button QD swivel provides fast, tool-free detachment from the firearm
- Padded body reduces fatigue during extended carries with a loaded rifle
- Multicam pattern integrates seamlessly with standard military and civilian kit
Who This Is For
The Vickers 221 is purpose-built for tactical operators, competitive shooters, and prepared civilians who need a sling that adapts to dynamic environments — whether clearing a structure, deploying from a vehicle, or transitioning between firing positions. If you demand real-world performance without carrying two separate slings, this is your answer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I switch between 1-point and 2-point mode?
Switching is designed to be done instantly and with one hand. Simply pull on the RED™ Swivel knob to disengage it, then reinsert it into the Burnsed Socket located at the rear of the receiver to enter 1-point mode. Reversing the process returns the sling to full 2-point configuration. No tools or secondary hardware are required, making it practical during active use.
What firearms is the Vickers 221 compatible with?
The Vickers 221 is designed primarily for AR-15, M4, and similar carbine-platform rifles equipped with standard QD sling cups or sling swivel mounts. The push-button QD swivel at the rear and the RED™ Swivel at the front are compatible with the vast majority of aftermarket and factory sling attachment points found on modern sporting rifles. Always verify your firearm's front and rear attachment points before purchasing.
Is the padded version noticeably heavier or bulkier than the standard Vickers sling?
The padding adds a modest amount of bulk and weight compared to the standard Vickers Combat Application Sling, but it remains streamlined enough for duty use. The padded section is positioned to rest against the shooter's body, distributing the weight of a loaded rifle more comfortably during prolonged use — a worthwhile trade-off for most users running heavier rifle builds or extended patrol loads.
