The Airsoft elite ICS can be purchased with a three point tactical sling. This sling is comprised of heavy duty webbing that is ergonomically designed to assist with load bearing in even the most compromising of tactical situations. It's no wonder that the Airsoft elite ICS sling is considered by many Airsoft skirmish veterans to be on par with the more expensive top end models.
I like to use the three point sling with my MP5. However, the Airsoft Elite ICS sling compatibilities are numerous. My friend uses his with his M4 Carbine, and I've even heard of people using the slings with an M4 tactical weapon. However you slice it, the tactical sling is a must have for serious skirmish players.
Protect against RSI with an Airsoft Elite ICS Sling
It's no surprise that ergonomic related accidents account for a significant proportion of Airsoft injuries. Although nonlethal Airsoft gun BBs sting tremendously, these hits don't cause chronic damage. On the other hand, poor positioning and uneven loadbearing of these heavy weapons for hours upon a time will certainly induce trauma.
To protect against repetitive stress injuries while on the battlefield, shift around at least every few minutes. If you find yourself often entering into long term stakeouts with a fellow sniper, the key is to get comfortable early--when you first fall into position. Don't keep fighting if you find yourself in chronic pain. It is far better to miss a tournament or two than to suffer the consequences of a repetitive stress injury for months--or even years.
