We are trying to get the word out on a new product and wanted to let the people on this board know about it. It is called the Montana Sling, and it's a totally new rifle sling design. It is 100% USA-made. In fact, it's made right here in our shop in Bozeman, Montana.
The sling is a single loop design and has a patented triple-wrap knot, which allows you to adjust the length without any buckles or hooks. You just slide the knot to where you want it, and it won't slip. It won't overtighten, being premium bridle leather (over 1/8" thick and this leather is not used for rifle slings normally because it costs too much), and allows you to adjust it again just as easily. In fact, the more you use it the better it gets through break-in.
Why would you want this? Well, it lets you adjust your sling for carry, or let it out a bit right away to use for a hasty sling, or snug it up in seconds to go in a scabbard, rack, or safe. The days of having a your sling hanging up on sage and branches as you walk with your rifle at the ready will be gone. Plus, the Titan swivels that come with it are also a made-in-USA product. They don't squeak and they're 100% guaranteed for life just like the sling. (Uncle M*ke swivels are from China, FYI)
We would love to hear back from anyone that uses the sling, in fact, we'll give you 10% off the sling just because this board is a good group of hunters (even Greenhorn). Probably the best comment so far is "The only thing I don't like about this sling is that I didn't come up with it." Use coupon code "Moosie" (without the quotes) if you order one from our website.
The Montana Sling so far has won a "Top Pick of the Shot Show" from Field & Stream, it is North American Hunting Club Field Tested and Approved, and Boone & Crockett is going to have us put their logo on a run of them next month.
In short, we believe in the product because we use it and it works. But being a small company it's tough for us to advertise much - the big magazines are really expensive. Maybe as hunters that's why we don't get to see too many ads if they aren't done by a major manufacturer.
A bit about IST Designs: The company direction is to only sell products that we ourselves use. We are too tired of the total junk in the outdoor marketplace, and the fact that most stuff comes with a taillight guarantee. We made it, and we stand behind it. The Montana Sling is one of those products that should last a lifetime - take care of it like you do any leather product and it just keeps getting better.
Check out our stuff, everything is 100% guaranteed for life. The site is www.istdesigns.com or call us toll free at 888-478-6565.
Thanks Moosie, for letting us post this.
