Published on October 25, 2019
Duration: 5:21

This training guide, presented by Larry Vickers, details the push/pull sling tension technique for stockless firearms like the Arsenal USA SAM7K. It emphasizes using sling tension to improve weapon control, manage recoil, and speed up follow-up shots. The technique involves adjusting the sling to create tension when arms are extended, allowing for a 'pull' into the shoulder and a 'push' during recoil.

Quick Summary

The BCM push/pull sling tension technique, taught by Larry Vickers, enhances control on stockless firearms by using sling tension. Adjust the sling so it's taut when arms are extended, allowing you to 'pull' the weapon into your shoulder and 'push' against recoil for better stability and faster follow-up shots.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the BCM push/pull sling tension technique?

The BCM push/pull sling tension technique, demonstrated by Larry Vickers, involves using sling tension to enhance control on stockless firearms. It allows shooters to 'pull' the weapon into their shoulder and 'push' against recoil, improving stability and follow-up shot speed.

How do I adjust my sling for the push/pull technique?

Adjust your sling so that when it's fully extended and taut, your arms are also fully extended. This ensures sufficient tension is created when transitioning to a firing grip or managing recoil.

What firearms is the push/pull sling technique best suited for?

This technique is particularly effective for firearms that lack a traditional buttstock, such as pistols (like the Arsenal SAM7K) or Short Barreled Rifles (SBRs) that are still awaiting NFA paperwork.

What are the benefits of using the push/pull sling tension method?

The primary benefits include improved recoil management, increased weapon stability, and faster acquisition of follow-up shots, especially when shooting compact or stockless firearms.
