Description
The design of the sling is based upon the real sling issued to Soviet troops during the early Cold War years of the 1950s; a basic and uncomplicated sling to distribute the weight of the weapon and allow soldiers to perform tasks without putting down their rifle.
The sling is easy to use, as the alloy clasps simply clip onto the front and rear sling mount points on your Airsoft gun. CYMA have accurately replicated the look and feel of the heavy-duty fabric and the sturdy alloy clasps that attach to your Airsoft gun.
The sling is adjustable, allowing users to carry their Airsoft gun comfortably, as well as set the sling up for use with a variety of Airsoft AK types from the classic AK47, the long-barrelled SVD marksman's rifle, and even the heavyweight RPK squad support weapon. Simple to set up and comfortable to use, this sling is an essential purchase for owners of Airsoft AKs.
Features:
- Replica AK47 sling
- Simple to fit and use
- Two-point sling designed to fit AK rifle-type Airsoft Guns
- Suitable for any AK - derivative Airsoft gun, including SVD and RPK
- Quick-release alloy clasps securely attach the sling to your Airsoft gun
- Strong canvas-constructed shoulder strap
- Length is adjustable for comfort
- Ideal Sling for use in Airsoft and historical re-enactment

Sling Guide
Slings are an Airsofter's best friend; they take some of the stress out of carrying a heavy platform over the day, allowing them to be slung over your back or held on your front to take some of the weight off your arms.
Worried about picking the right sling? Not a problem; we can talk you through the three major types of sling to help you pick the right one.
In this guide we'll look at the top three sling choices: Single Point, Two Point, and Three Point Slings, with Single Point and Two Point being the most common, and Three Point the choice of some specialised shooters.
Each serves the same purpose, holding a rifle, but each one has its own unique set of advantages and disadvantages, which we will go into below.
Single Point Slings
Single Point Slings consist of a large loop which goes over the head, and a strap leading from it to hold the platform, usually with a Quick Detach Point for platform removal. The Sling is typically worn on your strong-side shoulder to allow quick access to the platform.
Single point slings are designed to keep your platform towards the front and centre-line of the body, making it easier to grip the platform from its resting position. This type of sling offers great freedom, as it is easy and quick to remove and allows easy transition of the platform between shoulders in CQB Environments.
This type of sling has a weakness, though: the platform dangles freely when it is not held in place and can bound around or get in the way whilst moving, meaning that if you transition to your secondary platform, you won't be able to move quickly without your primary platform moving around. This might be a problem for some people, but if you're a high-cap hero and only run one platform, it shouldn't be a problem.
Advantages:
- Easy to use
- Usually quickly disconnects from your platform
- Good for right-to-left shoulder transitions
Disadvantages:
- Platform moves around whilst moving unsupported
- Poor weight distribution
Two Point Slings
The Two Point Sling is one of the most common styles of sling in use by Airsoft Skirmishers, as they offer a wide variety of setups and can be attached to a wide range of platforms, both long and short.
Typically, this type of sling setup is attached at both the Front and the Back of the platform, and can be adjusted to suit any length of platform, with multiple available types of connectors, such as fixed, loop, clip and quick detach. You can even buy attachment loops which fit onto 20mm Rails to add more sling points to the front of your rifle should it be required.
With this type of sling setup, the rifle can be worn several ways, including over the shoulder, across the body, and even on your back, depending on what kind of game you're playing or task you're trying to achieve, and are great for distributing the weight of the platform across your body, making it easy to carry for extended periods of time.
As a bonus, some two-point slings can even be converted into a single-point sling by connecting the sling clips!
This kind of sling doesn't have many weaknesses, except they stop you from transitioning between shoulders, which can be a huge problem in CQB. Typically in CQB, people opt to simply remove the sling from their shoulder and hold the platform, and then re-sling it over the shoulder for the walks back to the spawn area.
Advantages:
- Multiple ways of using them
- Makes your platform easier to carry for long time periods
Disadvantages:
- Must be unslung to transition in CQB
Three Point Slings
The Three Point sling setup isn't as common as the Single and Two Point setups, but has its distinct advantages over the two. Typically, these kinds of setups are attached with two points on the platform, and a large loop around the shooter, providing maximum security and hold.
When set up correctly, a Three Point Sling provides maximum hold on the platform, reducing platform sway whilst moving, but restricts the user more when handling their platform.
The main disadvantage to this kind of setup is its ease of use; they're hard to set up and can interfere with the operation of your platform, especially if you're using an M4 or M16, but are great on platforms such as the L85.
Transition shooting is very hard, and almost impossible, but the trade-off is that for carrying your platform for extended periods of time, and preventing the platform from swaying whilst moving, there is no better alternative.
Advantages:
- Strong and Secure
- Keeps the platform out of the way whilst moving
Disadvantages:
- Complicated, and hard to fit initially
- Cannot transition shoulders in CQB
Help! My sling won't fit into the sling hole!
If you're having trouble fitting your sling into the hole, it's not a problem; it's happened to all of us. A lot of slings have quite large and chunky clips or loops to attach to platforms, but some rifles and sub-machine guns have tiny loops for attaching the slings.
This is a common problem with smaller-style Airsoft platforms, such as MP5, MP9, and the ASG Scorpion Evo, and there is a simple solution: Use a Keyring!
It sounds a bit weird, but if you attach the Key Ring to your platform, then the sling to the Key Ring, it gives you the ability to attach a wide range of slings to your platform.
Gone are the days when you can only use specialist slings on your platform; just grab a Key Ring, and you're ready to go.
As always, however, we suggest you buy decent quality Key Rings, and always check before you play that the Key Ring will support the weight of the platform as you run around.
