A sling is a large triangular cloth bandana sort of thing that is used to keep a broken arm from flapping around. Also a fairly good place to carry a pistol at the same time. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 I liked a hasty sling better. If you adjusted it right it wouldn't tie your arm up when you were ready to move. It just fell loose and became a carrying strap until you needed it again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what a "loop sling is" and I've never seen anyone use a sling like that. At one minute into this video is how you use a sling to steady a rifle. Prone, sitting, kneeling or offhand.

The Loop Sling is shown in the picture I posted. We used Loop Slings during Marine Corps rifle training. It's used sitting, kneeling, and prone.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Watch Hell Is For Heroes. In one scene near the end of the movie Nick Adams, playing Homer, a Polish kid who wants to fight the Germans, uses a hasty sling the way I remember it being done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
