SOB Rifle B-Sling
About this video
McPhee demonstrates the design and proper use of the SOB Tactical rifle sling, a quick-detach 1-inch sling he developed for tactical applications. He explains the sling’s origin story from vehicle operations, shows how to attach and adjust it for different body armor configurations, and teaches his rapid-fire technique for quickly transitioning from carry to shooting position.
Key takeaways
- McPhee designed the SOB sling to prevent rifles from getting caught on vehicle shifters during tactical extractions from vehicles
- The sling features a quick-detach mechanism, heat-resistant silicone construction, and an adjustment point kept close to the shooter’s hand for easy manipulation
- McPhee teaches a rapid-fire technique where the shooter can quickly transition from secure carry position to firing by simply pulling the sling cord up, then re-secure it afterward without full tightening during active situations
- Proper sling length adjustment should accommodate body armor when worn, with extra slack available for non-armored use
