Blue Force Gear Releases Limited-Edition Vickers Medic Slings
POOLER, GA – Blue Force Gear has released a limited-edition, metal hardware version of its specialty Vickers Medic Sing.
The Vickers Medic Sling was developed based on the input of Special Forces 18 Delta medics and other combat medics. They wanted a sling with a greater range of adjustment than the Standard Vickers Sling but without the disadvantages commonly attributed to tailed slings. The quick adjusters found at both ends of the sling provide increased adjustment for anyone looking for a sling with greater flexibility, not just medics.
“The Medic Sling has been a long-time fan favorite, so it was time we brought it back,” explained Stephen Hilliard, Senior Director of Product Development for Blue Force Gear. “We wanted to do something a little different this time around, and we eventually landed on a limited-edition sling with all metal hardware. We haven’t released a Medic Sling with this configuration since 2011.”
The Vickers Medic Sling works the same way as the Blue Force Gear Standard Vickers Sling but features a Quick Adjuster Pull Tab at each end. This results in a greater range of adjustment, allowing the user to better secure their weapon when in the Rear Sling position. The Vickers Medic Slings also feature machined aluminum quick adjusters and steel triglides, adding another unique element to this special edition sling. All the hardware is made with premium US materials and has a lifetime guarantee.
The Vickers Medic Sling is not a regularly stocked item. This is a limited-edition release, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.
