Introducing the Safari Ching Sling
I've had the pleasure of taking firearms training twice with Eric S. H. Ching: once in a day-long special defensive pistol session I put together for my friends, and once in a 6-day defensive pistol course, where he was a line instructor under Col. Jeff Cooper.
Eric is an educated, methodical, and analytical man... who first started shooting in his 30's, but is now a world-respected firearms innovator. Those of you who've not yet taken the first steps in firearms ownership and training, take heart: Eric is your paradigm example. You can do it.
Eric has followed up his invention of the 3-point Ching Sling (featured on the Steyr Scout iconic to this blog: the favorite in my personal collection) with a 2-point version of the same, the "Safari Ching Sling", intended for mounting on rifles without the extra sling point (I'm thinking of the Savage Scout in particular).
