@Martin Eric thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I really appreciate it!

Pay attention folks! Most people don't think about the muzzle when the weapon is not directly in their hands. Thank you LAV! ✌️

Happy to say that we used the 2 point Vickers sling in the Infantry. I had no problems with it from using it in the snow to dry desert heat.

Hope u feeling better champ!! Forza💪🔥

Thanks Larry! This has often caused me to worry whether or not I had it right! Love the detail and insight you bring to a subject often taken for granted! Be strong, you're looking good! I am one year out from my Lymphoma scare and "C" free, praying for you brother!

Larry I've been injoying your videos for years, and you convinced me to choose aimpoint over everything else. We're praying for you, and Don't quit.

Mr. Vickers you always bring it together. Your classes must be amazing! Looking good as always. We need you now more than ever!

I thought i was the only weirdo shooting long rifle righthanded and handgun lefthanded...thanks for those tips, i'll try and see how it improves my handling Stay safe, bud'

We love you Larry! Thank you.

Finally. I’ve been waiting years for someone to address sling attachment positioning. Thank you Sir.

I am in the same boat as LAV, left eye dominant righty. Shoot pistol right handed and long gun lefty. This video is the only solution I've seen thus far that works for me setting up carbines. Thank you for all that you do sir.

Keep on fighting ! You are winning ! Big love from Finland to you ! And remember, cancer is weak and you will beat the shit out of it ! It will desert your body in full retreat ! Keep strong and remember you are badass and the reason Waldo is hiding !

Keep your fighter spirit sir, God speed.

Thanks for explaining why you run it that way. I was always wondering why, now it makes sense. Stay strong Larry

I love this sling setup. I really appreciate this video.

Thank you so much for explaining this sir. I have managed to run into 3 cross-dominant novice shooters whom, with a little coaching, wind up shooting like you do (right handed pistol, left handed rifle). The sling has always been the sticking point in this. One of the 3 is trying this next range trip.

Always good to see you.

Larry, thank you for doing this video. I (one of many I’m sure) asked you to do this video a while back because like you, I shoot pistol with one hand and rifle with the other. This is super helpful! Thanks Good Sir.

Good stuff. I noticed you doing this back in the late 90's and have suggested it to my students that shoot rifle lefty and pistol righty. Thank you.

Stay strong and here’s to lots more content. Always sharp and well presented.

This video was made for me! I began researching a better sling recently and came across this video. Just so happens, I’m opposite of Larry. I bought this sling and set it up just like this. I shoot a rifle right handed and a pistol left. This cleared up all my issues.

Thanks for the advice sir.

Thanks Larry, stay strong!

Thanks Larry great tip

Makes perfect sense. Thanks for putting this together.

Makes me feel a lot better about shooting rifles left pistol right. Now I can brag HEY LARRY DOES IT !! 👍👍🇺🇸

great video thanks Larry stay strong

Awesome setup brother! I'm definitely trying this. 👍

I was just asking about on a previous video. Thanks for the info. 🤙

Excellent video, I have the Vickers Sling Black and it works perfect with my AR pistol.

Good to see You still kickin' Larry

Thank you for this! Always wondered about your sling setup! God speed LAV!

Great tip: because I’m also left eye dominant, I shoot long guns with left and pistols with right. I’ve just tried this sling setup and works nice on prim/sec transitions. But yes, switch sides will need practice

God bless you Larry

Stay strong Larry!

I'm sold, I placed my order for a Vickers sling today. I will be running it on a Kriss Vector. Thanks Larry

Cross eye dominant shooter here, just wanted to say thank you for the video and guidance sir! It really helped a new shooter like me

Nice explanation. I've seen LAV run his sling like this for years and never could figure it out. Fight hard. Be safe!

LAV please keep them coming. Love your videos 👍🏻😎

Excellent sling set-up. This same exact sling set-up/manipulation also works great on tactical shotguns which have proper QD sling mounts (e.g. a TS12 as factory-equipped, or an 870 or 500/590 equipped with a MesaTactical LEO Gen II telescoping buttstock). Years back, I modified my M1A Scout-Squad by in-letting a QD sling mount into the right-rear (i.e., non-cheek weld) side of the walnut buttstock and then installing a side-offset short Picatinny rail forward on the opposite side, in order to achieve the same basic set-up on that battle rifle, that Larry's running on his M4.

Great video. We’re pulling for you Uncle Larry. Get well soon.

Good stuff as always LAV!

Excelente Vicker Tactical, muy buen consejo

Cool 😎 thanks LAV

You make it look so easy

Ya know, I think I'm going to try moving the front of my sling back like you have yours there. I find it gets in the way pretty often, and moving it back makes a lot of sense. Great content as always. Thank Larry.

I use a Magpul RSA on the top pic rail of my AR right at the point where the hand guard and upper meet to attach the front of my sling. It makes the gun hang muzzle down no matter what. The gun can't flip over and the muzzle can't rise. The rear is attached to a QD end plate. The RSA also reinforces where the hand guard and upper meet. Even if all of the screws fall out of the hand guard attachment mechanism it will still stay on and stay properly clocked. Very important if you run any kind of laser aiming system. I prefer attaching the rear to the end plate b/c I also want the ability to convert to a single point sling. If you attach to the stock then the gun hangs too low if you convert it to single point. Putting the front sling attachment as close to the upper is the best spot in my opinion. Its close to the gun's center of gravity when you have a mag inserted.

Larry! Nice video as always! You will beat cancer like nothing and keep shooting until for ages you get bored! Greetings from Brazil.

Keep up the fight brother.

Keep crankin, LAV.

I got one of those push-button quick detach sling swivels a few years ago for my service rifle (can't remember which manufacturer but it was a name-brand swivel) and the first time I took it out on exercise it got wet from the rain and immediately rusted shut. Ever since then I don't trust those things. Great for the range I'm sure, not so much for practical applications.

Blue Force Gear! Vickers did it RIGHT. I have 3 of them now and even run one on my precision rifle (padded) and I can snug it up enough for stability. Makes a 14.5lb gun feel like a 9lber when i'm slung up.

I'm left eye dominant, so I employ long guns left-handed and handguns right-handed, since I'm right-handed. I LOVE my BFG slings! All custom builds. Just like my firearms, I have trouble recalling how many BFG slings I have! 😁

Looking good Larry

LAV even with the chemo, you are looking great man! I’m super proud to be a part of this community, and from all of us I know we love seeing new vids each week! It’s always a bummer when I jump on FB or YT and I’m still waiting for new content from you as I consume it so fast! Lmao

Nice,thanks !

Good stuff

Dam he's got some great stories. Sad to hear you sick Larry. Keep fighting. We love ya dude. 👍

Love ya larry

If you want to go to the rear swivel on the end plate I recommend putting it around your shoulders the other way where the top is over your shoulder and the front is under your opposite arm. That gives the best control with the muzzle down. Plus makes going 1 point much easier.

Thanks for the tip. I shoot exactly the same way. This tip sounds simple but makes a big difference. Do you set up the sling the same way with a sub machinegun or SBR. You give good really good practical advice.

Vickers Slings are the only kind I buy for me, my family, friends etc.. A great American here.

I run the same kit, BCM and the best sling in the world the Blue Force Gear padded LAV sling.

That's a nice sling

Neat video Larry, but it's pretty specific to lefty rifle/righty pistol. Now how about a similar breakdown for right/right?

as a leftie this was a huge help thank you

I have seen a few old school delta guys and even seals back in the day run their slings this way. It was common with 60 gunners

Nice

Thank You Vickers - Is that a QD attachment in the front?

Thanks, what happened to the review of the Metal Sig 320?

LARRY LOOKIN LEAN!!!

Stay Strong

Idk why but the audio on this video makes that rifle sound AMAZING 🤯

THANKS

Found out years later we were only a few blocks apart during the first night of the Panama Operation. I was at Ancon Hill and he was at Modelo Prison.

Awesome video, however you have a pretty unique case with righty/lefty shooting. Maybe a video on the basics, or what you're looking to accomplish with the sling would be useful. Address the muzzle orientation and discipline, strongside/weakside shooting and transitions, why you might sling to your back, long range shooting and bracing with the sling, and other best practices and then the user could really fine tune the setup to their needs.

LAV for president!

currently run single to double. a bit of navy, with a bit of army. 🇺🇸

Hope you get 1m subs

I’ve been doing just that for months without knowing it was so helpful, dunno it just fitted right brother

2:50 Totally true!

Great advice. The way that I run my sling is completely different. I run a single point sling attached where the buffer tube meets the upper receiver, but I’m a paraplegic and when I drop it the barrel falls between my knees with the muzzle in front of my feet. CQB in a a wheelchair is kind of entertaining! Lol

@@geebeaux Cool! At almost 60 I tend to work hard to stay upright but I’ll have to give the down on the ground shooting a try. The biggest obstacle at the moment is the range. There’s not one around here that doesn’t freak out when anything out of the ordinary takes place.

Thank you for the tip. You mentioned you shoot rifles left handed and pistols right handed. I shoot the exact opposite rifle right, pistol left. My question for you is how to you carry spare mags for your rifle? I’ve been trying for years to figure out the perfect set up but I just can’t figure it out.

Did you have to make your own slings when you served or were the off the shelf ones good enough?

Can this apply to mounting a sling to a broom? UK viewer here an need some home defence tips.

Hey Mr Vickers, I was wondering what the best way is to put the Vickers sling on a scar sc. Our department was issued this rifle. It's a good rifle but it doesn’t have qd points. I was thinking on getting the hk clamp, but I wanted to hear your suggestion. Many thanks in advance, Greetings from a fan from Belgium 🇧🇪 Ps, I hope you get well soon.
