Shotgun Sling

Post by papajohn1964 »

I've been looking at slings for my Maverick and there are a LOT of choices out there. I think that I want a single point that will attach to my Phoenix stock. I use the gun at work sometimes so I have to hold it at the low ready for 30 - 90 minutes at a time. Any reccomendations will be appreciated.

Don't have any recommendations for a sling but how did your shotgun perform after the repair? I assume if you're confident enough to use it at work it must be good to go?

Haven't had a chance to get to the range yet. But I figure if it does work then all is good if it dosent work I will go buy a Mossberg 500 so I can use the stock that I have. Either way I want to get a sling.

Finally got to the range today and fired 50 mixed 00 and 7 1/2 and had no problems at all except it started to dry out but I havent put any oil on it yet and I did fire those 50 rounds in about an hour. I will have no issues trusting it at work or using it for home defense.

Now about that sling...no ideas from anybody?

Thanks for the report. I've been too busy going back and forth to see kids and grandkids to go shoot. Now we have all 5 grandkids for 9 days. Herding cats comes to mind. Glad the Mavvy is fixed. The only slings I use are Brownell Latigo Quick Slings, sorry!
