Rifle sling
« on: September 24, 2023, 09:05:25 AM »
I am finding it to be more difficult to carry my rifle in the correct and safe manner while walking to and from the shooting area. Would it be acceptable to install a sling on the rifle so as to carry it on my back, but still pointed up with the action open? Naturally the sling would be removed when actually shooting.

If you fit a period sling and period sling-swivels you wouldn't even have to remove the sling for CAS main-match.  I've shot my two Uberti 1860 Henry's "forever" with loose slings attached.

Per todays rules only Wild Bunch Action Shooting do NOT allow slings on longguns.
