Patent attributes
A universal attachment mechanism for a sling that uses a flexible length or loop of material to attach the rifle sling to the forestock of the firearm without compromising the ability of the sling to provide support to the user's arm when aiming and firing. The loop of material can also be used to affix the rifle sling directly to the forestock of the firearm. A flexible loop of material is affixed to a sling possibly using a hook-and-loop fastener system affixed to a strap. The strap has at least one inner strap section and at least two outer strap sections each featuring a surface on which is located a hook-and-loop fastener system. The inventor even envisions the flexible loop of material could be used to affix the sling to a rifle missing the traditional hardware used to attach a sling to the forestock of the firearm.
