Sling for the Benelli M4 | Fitment & Mounts

Yes — the McLean Shotgun Sling fits the Benelli M4. The front of the sling carries its own hook, so up front it only needs a loop to clip onto — never a second hook.

Front attachment

Stamped sling loop on the magazine tube — already on the gun.

M1014-pattern loop at the front of the magazine tube. It faces downward — that is how the gun was designed.

No extra hardware needed here. The sling’s own hook clips straight onto it.

Rear attachment

Factory sling attachment at the stock — already on the gun.

Factory loop point. A QD socket here is an aftermarket part (GG&G, Mesa Tactical), not standard.

Why this sling on a Benelli M4

Duty, home-defence and competition use put a shotgun on and off the shoulder constantly, often with a hand busy loading. Retention matters more here than raw comfort: the gun has to lock against the body and release without a second thought.

The McLean design is a two-point sling with a patented retention system: it cinches tight to hold the shotgun against your body hands-free, then releases into a ready position in one pull. It ships in one size and adjusts, so there is no length to choose.

Fitting it

Clear the shotgun. Tube unloaded, action open, chamber checked visually and physically.
Front: clip the sling hook to the stamped sling loop on the magazine tube.
Rear: attach at the factory sling attachment at the stock.
Adjust wearing your kit. A setting dialled in without a vest comes up short once it is on.
Check the transition. It should shoulder without pulling tight across your chest.

Questions

Does the McLean Shotgun Sling fit a Benelli M4?

Yes. At the front the sling uses its own hook, so it needs a loop to clip to: the stamped sling loop on the magazine tube (already fitted). At the rear it attaches at the factory sling attachment at the stock (already fitted).

Do I need a snap hook for the front of my Benelli M4?

No. The McLean sling carries its own hook at the front as part of the retention system. It only needs something to hook onto — a factory loop, a swivel, or any loop you add. Buying a second snap hook for the front is wasted money.

What do I need to buy for a Benelli M4?

Nothing at the front — the stamped sling loop on the magazine tube is already on the gun. At the rear the factory sling attachment at the stock is already there too.

What length sling do I need for a Benelli M4?

There is no length to choose. The sling ships in one size and adjusts, so the same sling covers carry and cinched retention. Set it wearing the kit you actually carry in — a setting dialled in without a vest or heavy coat comes up short once it is on.
