Pooler, GA \u2013 Blue Force Gear<\/a>, the industry leader in modern combat slings, is pleased to announce that the US Army has chosen the patented Blue Force Gear Push Button Sling in both Black and Tan as an authorized attachment to the M4A1.<\/p>\n

This modification can be done at the soldier level and both slings can be ordered through the Army\u2019s Global Combat Support System (GCSS-A) using the following information: Vickers Push Button quick-adjustable sling from Blue Force Gear (Tan: NSN 1005-01-707-1744, Black: NSN 1005-01-625-4470).<\/p>\n

After years of supporting the United States Marine Corps with their standard issue rifle sling, Blue Force Gear stands ready to fully support the US Army with the Push Button Sling and New Equipment Training and Education.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe modern combat sling is probably the most overlooked and underutilized tool that\u2014when properly sized, mounted, and employed\u2014is the cheapest and most effective component for immediately enhancing a soldier\u2019s lethality and safety,\u201d said Chris Sizelove, Blue Force Gear Director of Education and Training. \u201cI am proud of the Army for providing authorized options for the M4 besides the issued parade sling.\u201d<\/p>\n

Along with the sling options, the Army has also authorized additional modern buttstock options, most notably the B5 Systems Bravo (Black: NSN 1005-01-706-2373, Tan: NSN 1005-01-706-2510), which, when used in conjunction with the modern combat sling adds many additional capabilities to the combat rifle system.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy authorizing our proven sling, the Army has made it easier than ever for Soldiers to improve marksmanship and weapon handling,\u201d said Ashley Burnsed, CEO at Blue Force Gear. \u201cThis is a huge win for the US Army.\u201d<\/p>\n
