Developed in conjunction with retired Navy SEAL Miles Hadden, the Sling Catch is a welcome design for those of us who have had a weapon sling ‘saw’ into our necks.
The simple, molded design is attached ato the shoulder pad/strap of the vest by means of a heavy duty Velcro strap and keeps it away from the neck.

Great idea. You could turn it around and use it for slinging a hunting rifle that are always sliding off the shoulders.
It still slides off your shoulder, but doesn’t dig into your neck. But now great, you got a piece of plastic to dig into your neck.
They have been making those for seat belts in cars for years. Pep boys sells them for a few bucks.
Isn’t this sling catch similiar to what Kyle defoor was promoting for s&s precision?
Now I see the full pic, I guess it’s not. The one I’m talking about goes on the rifle, not on kit. Apologies
seems like this thing would be good to keep backpack shoulder straps locked into armor or chest rig straps as well, huh?

Doesn’t fit on the CF TAC vest. Great idea though.
