My wife made me this paracord sling for one of my Ar's 84' of cord is in it... yes 84 feet, one solid strand, I can untie bottom sling swivel and just pull on it and it will all unravel if needed... she did tell me that it better be a case of life and death before I do that tho.. as it took her a while to make it. I thought it turned out pretty cool. What do yall think??

Impressive work - how many hours did this require to complete? took her about 4 hrs.. but it was the prototype so to speak.. she made her dad one that took about 3 I think..each one will get a little faster up to a point.

Sling looks awesome. There are dozens on them on ebay that she could look at for a price point. From what I remember the one you have pictured looks better than the ones I saw on ebay, so if it were me, I would price them at the top end of the price range. Or more if it was a custom made to order kind of thing.

He even made his kid a pair of flip flops. If you want his number PM me I'll get you in contact with him and pics of the stuff he makes.

Excellent work. And I bet that is one comfortable sling! Let us know how much it stretches out. Did she put in a thumb grip?

Did she put in a thumb grip? had it on there about a month or so, no noticeable stretch that I can tell.. no thumb grip, I mostly carry rifle in front of me across my chest/belly, sling behind my neck on 4 wheeler with it, then swing it down to my left side when walking as I shoot lefty
