A Rifle Sling Clip helps hold your rifle sling in place on a backpack shoulder strap. Instead of letting the sling slide down your arm or off the pack strap, the Sling Hook gives it a set place to sit while you hike, climb, glass, or move through uneven ground.

WHY CHOOSE THE SLING HOOK?


Quick Sling Release
The open-hook design keeps your sling controlled while you move, then lets it lift out cleanly when it is time to shoulder your rifle or bow.
Non-Slip Pack Carry
The Sling Hook helps keep your sling from sliding down your backpack strap, giving hunters a steadier carry on rough ground, sidehills, and long hikes.
Works With Your Existing Gear
Compatible with wide, thin, cushioned, or tactical pack straps, the Sling Hook works with rifle and bow slings up to 5/8" thick.
Simple Field Setup
No complicated hardware or pack changes. Attach it to your shoulder strap, set your sling in place, and move with less bounce, less slide, and fewer readjustments.

Frequently asked questions
Have questions? We’re here to help
What does a Rifle Sling Clip do?
Will the Sling Hook fit my hunting backpack?
Yes. The Sling Hook is designed to attach to wide, thin, cushioned, or tactical backpack shoulder straps. It works best when placed where your sling naturally rests on your shoulder strap, usually high enough to keep the sling controlled but still easy to reach.
Can I use this rifle sling hook for backpack straps with my current sling?
Yes. This rifle sling hook for backpack straps works with slings up to 5/8" thick. It is made for hunters who want to keep using their current rifle or bow sling while reducing sliding, bouncing, and constant readjusting on the pack strap.
Does the Sling Hook work with a bow sling?
Yes. The Sling Hook can hold a rifle or bow sling on your backpack strap. It is useful for hunters who carry a bow or rifle over the shoulder but want both hands available for hiking, climbing, using trekking poles, glassing, or steadying themselves on rough ground.
Will the sling release quickly when I need to shoulder my rifle?
Yes. The Sling Hook is built to hold the sling in place during movement while still allowing a clean release. When it is time to shoulder your rifle or bow, lift the sling out of the hook and bring it into position. It is still a good idea to test the motion with your own pack and sling before heading into the field.
Will this stop all rifle movement while hiking?
No. The Sling Hook is designed to stop the sling from sliding off your backpack strap, not to lock the entire rifle rigidly to your body. Your rifle or bow may still move with your stride, terrain, or pack position. For most hunting movement, it helps make carry feel more controlled, but you should still steady your setup when crossing rough ground.
Can I install the Sling Hook without tools?
Yes. The Sling Hook attaches directly to your backpack shoulder strap using its strap and Velcro setup. Position it, wrap the base, tighten it down, and secure the Velcro. After installation, test your sling placement and release to make sure it feels natural with your pack.
Can I use it on either shoulder strap?
Yes. You can attach the Sling Hook to the shoulder strap that matches how you carry your rifle or bow. Right-handed and left-handed hunters can place it on the side that feels most natural for their carry style and pack setup.
Why use rifle sling hooks instead of a DIY clip or strap?
Rifle sling hooks give your sling a consistent place to sit on your backpack strap. A DIY fix may work for some setups, but it can create pressure points, awkward release, or inconsistent sling placement. The Sling Hook is made to reduce slip while keeping the release simple and natural.
Is the Sling Hook better than strapping my rifle to the pack?
It depends on how you hunt. Strapping a rifle to the pack can be useful for long hauls, but it usually slows access. The Sling Hook is better for hunters who want the rifle or bow carried on the shoulder, kept from sliding, and still easy to shoulder when needed.
