Brownells Latigo Sling With Swivels, 1'', Tan

The Brownells Latigo Sling with Swivels is a traditional leather rifle sling built for shooters who want a no-fuss, quick-adjust design that works in the field without gadgetry. This 1-inch-wide tan sling features simple construction—one continuous piece of supple leather that adjusts instantly to any length you need, then locks in place without slipping. Whether you're hunting, running drills at the range, or moving between shooting positions, the Latigo delivers the versatility serious shooters have relied on for generations.

What sets the Latigo apart is its elegance and practicality combined. There are no hooks, toggles, snaps, or laces to fumble with, adjust, or break in harsh weather. The sling's clever design lets you change length on the fly—pull down and snap out—without stopping to figure out any mechanism. And because it's crafted from a single piece of hand-finished leather, there's nothing to slip, wear through, or fail. The included quick-detachable swivels mount directly onto your rifle's existing studs or the studs that come with the sling, snapping in place in seconds.

Brownells sources rare pit-tanned Swiss and German leather for these slings—top-grain shell leather so supple and durable that the company buys the world's entire supply to manufacture them. Each sling is hand-crafted by guild leather workers to exacting specifications, resulting in a tool that's as much heirloom-quality as it is functional. The tan finish pairs cleanly with most rifle stocks and develops character with use, becoming more comfortable and visually distinctive over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What swivels come with the Latigo Sling?

The sling includes quick-detachable swivels that snap onto your rifle's existing studs, or you can use the studs that come packaged with the sling if your rifle isn't already equipped.

How do I adjust the length of the Latigo Sling?

The sling uses a simple pull-down, snap-out mechanism that lets you adjust the length instantly to any position you need. Once set, the length locks in place and won't slip. To change it again, you just repeat the process—no tools, no fidgeting required.

Will the Latigo Sling scratch my rifle stock?

No. The sling is one continuous piece of leather with no metal hardware that touches the stock. The quick-detachable swivels attach only at the mounting studs, so the leather itself rests safely against your rifle.

What makes pit-tanned leather different?

Pit-tanned leather is tanned using traditional methods that produce exceptionally supple, durable material. The Swiss and German leather used in Latigo Slings is rare enough that Brownells purchases the entire world supply to manufacture these slings, ensuring consistent quality and a material that improves with age and use.
