The Butler Creek Nylon Utility Black Sling 1.25" (MPN: BC26703) is a low-bulk, unpadded two-point carry strap designed for utility firearms, shotguns, and rimfire rifles. Constructed from tightly woven black synthetic nylon webbing, it resists rot, mold, and mildew in wet or humid hunting environments. The sling mounts directly to standard 1.25-inch (31.75 mm) swivels and factory sling loops, offering a simple and durable solution for carrying long guns across farm properties, shooting ranges, and field conditions.

Key Features

• All-Weather Synthetic Build: Tightly woven nylon webbing naturally repels water and prevents rot, mildew, and degradation caused by moisture or mud.

• Standard Swivel Fit: Engineered at 1.25 inches (31.75 mm) in width to seat flat in standard 1.25-inch sling swivels without binding or bunching.
• Low-Bulk Utility Design: Unpadded strap profile rolls tightly for compact storage in a range bag, pack, or gun safe.

Who is the Butler Creek Nylon Utility Black Sling 1.25" for?

• Farm and truck gun owners — Requires a durable, rot-resistant 1.25-inch nylon utility rifle sling that withstands mud and wet weather without adding bulk inside vehicle cabs or utility racks.
• Rimfire and standard shotgun shooters — Needs a simple two-point carry strap adjustable up to 48 inches (121.9 cm) for light to medium-weight field firearms.
• Range shooters needing a backup sling — Provides a compact, low-profile nylon utility sling with a 1.25-inch width that packs flat into range bags or gun cases as a reliable spare.

Less suitable for: Firearms exceeding 4 to 5 kg, all-day mountain trekking, or tall shooters wearing heavy winter layers requiring cross-body carry; these setups require a wider padded rifle sling or an extended 72-inch tactical two-point sling to reduce shoulder fatigue. It is also incompatible with narrow 1.0-inch sling swivels.
