Butler Creek®, a brand of Michaels of Oregon, Improves Easy Rider® Slings for 2004

Uncle Mike's Easy Rider OREGON CITY, Ore. - Butler Creek® has enhanced the look and performance of its popular Easy Rider™ rifle sling, and has also introduced a new model of the sling for shotguns.

All Easy Rider models offer a thick neoprene body, which cushions the weight of the firearm. A rubberized shark skin pattern on the back of the sling grips the shoulder and keeps the gun in place, even in inclement conditions. All sling edges are fully bound to provide additional resistance to abrasion.

Easy Rider rifle slings feature strong polypro webbing at both ends, which is designed to work perfectly with Uncle Mike's QD 1-inch swivels. Shotgun models feature loops at either end of the sling, which slip over the barrel and pistol grip, eliminating the need for swivels.
