The MS1 Sling from Magpul stands as a testament to versatility and reliability in the realm of rifle slings. Engineered with precision, this sling system begins its journey as an optimized two-point configuration, seamlessly transitioning into a one-point role when paired with optional adapters. At the heart of this innovation is the MS1 slider, empowering users with swift length adjustments while ensuring steadfast stability—no slipping once set and devoid of any dangling tails or loops that could become snag hazards.
In its two-point incarnation, the MS1 facilitates effortless shoulder transitions and provides rapid adjustability for hands-free rifle carry. It supports shooting from various positions, making it indispensable for tactical scenarios. The adaptability extends further through a series of separately sold adapters based on Magpul's respected MS3 and MS4 designs. By incorporating these adapters—available with either Paraclip or QD Sling Swivel—the user can effortlessly introduce one-point functionality to their setup.
Rigorous testing has proven the mettle of the MS1 Sling across tens of thousands of cycles under adverse conditions including wetness, dryness, and sand exposure. It endured static load tests without yielding over 72 hours and survived weighted six-foot dynamic drop challenges unscathed. Beyond controlled environments, field trials saw it swimming rivers, leaping obstacles, enduring hunts in dense woods, scaling mountainsides—and most crucially—performing flawlessly during live-fire exercises in harsh terrains.
Proudly made entirely within the USA and fully compliant with Berry Amendment standards, this sling features lightweight yet robust hardware crafted from heavy-duty polymer materials. Its custom 1-1/4" wide nylon webbing offers exceptional strength against wear while maintaining comfort against chafing—essential for prolonged use in demanding conditions. Furthermore, colored webbing incorporates Near Infrared (NIR) treatment to minimize IR signature visibility—a subtle but significant advantage on modern battlefields.
