Working with Multiple rifles
2 August, 2009, 23:43
Evening Guys!
I have a small problem! last time i went airsofting i took my L96 and my MP5 hoping to use them both during game! As my sniper being my primary weapon and my MP5 for back if i need to go into buildings etc!
but i have a sling for my 96 and a 3 point sling for my MP5 ( though i have no idea if i'v done it properly! but i struggled to keep them both on me, take off the sniper and sling the mp5 etc! does anyone have an idea or tips on what to do?!
I'm getting a pistol for the next scrim but having the Mp5 would obviously being a massive help!!!!!
Thanks,
Chandler

Re: Working with Multiple rifles
try tightening the mp5 sling and when it comes to the l96 don't sling it one shoulder but across your back. when using the mp5 take it off and don't keep the sling around you

Re: Working with Multiple rifles
build a back pack sling
it looks like a upside down Y and if you put QR tabs on the top you can bring it into action fast

Re: Working with Multiple rifles
bad idea to use a full size mp5 really
would be better off with an mp5k for backup as it can be holstered

Re: Working with Multiple rifles
A
weapons catch
on your left side (if you're right handed) will stop the rifle slipping off your shoulder and for the MP5 a properly set up 3 point should hold the MP5 around your back pretty well.
You might be better off getting a pistol as a backup to the rifle tho as they are a lot easier to carry and swap to.
In buildings you'll rarely need the extra firepower of an AEG unless you plan on holding the building and if that's the case why use the sniper in the first place?

Re: Working with Multiple rifles
new plan
MP7 - love mine and is a perfect sniper backup - very compact like a pistol - can be holstered either on the leg or you can put it on your back on your belt horizontally - doesnt get in the way lying down
then get a weapon catch for your rifle so you can sling it securly then whip the mp7 out - pull out the stock and get to work

Re: Working with Multiple rifles
I'm sort of in your situation.
I never sling my mp5 when I'm sniping, I tend to carry both guns in my hands.
If I find a nice spot to snipe, I put the mp5 down next to me, so if things get nasty I've got it if I need it.
If I need to move, pick 'em both up, and quietly move on.
But if you're adament on using slings, I'd suggest keeping your Mp5 sling tight, when on your back. But not so tight it makes it difficult to take off.
Just remember not to over complicate things, I know from experience how tangled you can get from using a 3 point sling and a rifle on your back at the same time.
Keep it simple, and use your muscles. Makes things alot easier too.
I hope this has helped a little.
