Specter Gear High Speed Transition (HST) Sling

Patent No. D462,513

The High Speed Transition (HST) Sling is designed exclusively for high intensity dynamic entry operations where rapid cross shoulder and secondary weapon transitions are crucial to survival. While not as versatile as the CQB or SOP Slings, the HST Sling excels in the dynamic entry role. 

Used on a weapon with a side receiver sling mount, the body loop secures the sling to a single mounting point. This arrangement allows the operator to simply arc the buttstock over the sling for an easily accomplished cross shoulder transition. Should a secondary weapon transition be required the weapon drops naturally to the offside, muzzle down, clearing a path to the sidearm and allowing an unobstructed secondary weapon transition.

All of Specter Gear HST slings are constructed from the same 1.25″ webbing that Specter Gear use with Specter Gear CQB Slings. All HST slings also come standard with an Emergency Release Buckle (ERB) to enable emergency disengagement of the sling from the body should the sling become entangled on an obstacle or in the case of a weapon retention problem.  

The HST sling is an ambidextrous design. Therefore, no left or right hand versions are required.

NOTE: The HST sling works best when mounted to a side receiver sling mount such as on the MP5 A3 series or weapons with aftermarket receiver sling mounts installed.

Aftermarket side receiver sling mounts are currently available for most popular tactical long guns that don’t already possess this feature. Specter Gear produces G.G.&G. receiver sling mounts for the M-4/CAR-15

Where soft mounts are a viable solution, such as with the FN P90, Specter Gear will make them available as a complete package along with the sling.
