Yes — the McLean Dynamic Retention Sling (DRS) fits the CenterPoint Crossbows. 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
Sling swivel stud or mount ahead of the trigger group — varies by configuration.
CenterPoint bows are budget-focused and fittings vary between generations. Check ahead of the trigger group for a stud rather than assuming from the model name.
Rear attachment
Sling swivel stud in the stock — varies by configuration.
Check the underside of the stock for a threaded stud.
Why this sling on a CenterPoint Crossbows
A crossbow is awkward to carry by hand and worse to climb with. A sling that cinches tight for a stand climb and releases into a ready position solves the two moments that actually matter.
The McLean design is a two-point sling with a patented retention system: it cinches tight to hold the crossbow 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 crossbow. Tube unloaded, action open, chamber checked visually and physically.
- Front: clip the sling hook to the sling swivel stud or mount ahead of the trigger group.
- Rear: attach at the sling swivel stud in 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 Dynamic Retention Sling (DRS) fit a CenterPoint Crossbows?
Yes. At the front the sling uses its own hook, so it needs a loop to clip to: the sling swivel stud or mount ahead of the trigger group (added separately). At the rear it attaches at the sling swivel stud in the stock (added separately).
Do I need a snap hook for the front of my CenterPoint Crossbows?
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 CenterPoint Crossbows?
At the front you need a loop: CenterPoint bows are budget-focused and fittings vary between generations. Check ahead of the trigger group for a stud rather than assuming from the model name. At the rear: Check the underside of the stock for a threaded stud.
What length sling do I need for a CenterPoint Crossbows?
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.
