Frequently Asked Questions

How do you properly attach the Gunwerks Tripod Sling to your belt?

The Gunwerks Tripod Sling features a belt attachment. For right-handed shooters, it's attached over the right hip, and for left-handed shooters, over the left hip. This ensures it's accessible and functional for your dominant side.

What is the correct tripod setup for using the Gunwerks Tripod Sling?

For optimal stability with the Gunwerks Tripod Sling, set your tripod height so the head is at chest or sternum height. Configure the tripod legs with two legs positioned behind you and one leg forward to aid in recoil management.

How does the Gunwerks Tripod Sling improve shooting stability?

The sling integrates with the tripod legs, preventing the rifle from canting. By taking out slack and adjusting tension, and then pushing your hips back against the sling, you create a stable shooting platform that manages recoil effectively.

Where should the rifle sling attachment point be on the forend?

When attaching the rifle sling to the forend, ensure the attachment point aligns with the textured portion on the top of the forend. Crucially, the attachment point should face away from the rifle when connected to the buttstock.
