McLean customers describe different priorities: hunting carry, rifle use and fit over a larger frame. This page groups a small selection of published reviews by what the owner actually mentions, so you can read the relevant experience before choosing a sling.
Selected by McLean Corp USA, September 6, 2026. We manufacture the DRS. These excerpts retain the reviewers’ wording and link to the original reviews. This is a curated selection, not every review or an independent survey. The rifle and shotgun listings share review content; their counts should not be added together.
| What you want to assess | Evidence below | What it does not establish |
|---|---|---|
| Hunting carry | One owner describes hiking to a deer stand. | A guaranteed comfort result for every hunter. |
| Rifle use | One reviewer describes patrol rifles and a personal Colt M4. | A universal fit or performance rating. |
| Body fit | A tall owner gives a four-star review with a length concern. | A published adjustment-range specification. |
| Shotgun fitment | An owner asks about a VRBP 100 setup. | Confirmation that the completed setup fitted successfully. |

Hunting: carrying a long rifle
I really like this sling. As a hunter, I use it for my long rifle. Love that it keeps it snug when hiking long distances to my deer stand.
Read the original product review
Ronald describes keeping his rifle close during a walk to his stand. If that is your priority, compare the retention feature alongside shoulder comfort and pack fit in our hunting sling guide.
Rifles: a Colt M4 and patrol use
Great product!!! We use the McLean slings on all of our patrol rifles. I particularly like the easy transition from 2-point to single-point configuration. I have one on my personal Colt M4, as well.
Read the original product review
This review mentions the convertible configuration. For the purchasing differences between designs, read two-point vs. convertible slings.
Fit concern: a tall owner’s experience
I’m 6’4” and 200lbs. The sling is just barely (fully extended) able to make it around me. It’s easy to use and comfortable otherwise.
Read the original product review
This four-star review is a reason to confirm usable adjustment range before ordering, especially with heavier layers. The owner’s height and weight are context for that individual experience, not a sizing chart or a maximum supported body size.
Shotgun: an owner’s compatibility question
I bought your sling for a set-up on the VRBP 100 shotgun,any suggestions? Everyone I show your sling to wants one
Read the original product review
This excerpt records a question about a VRBP 100 setup. It does not confirm the final mounting arrangement or a successful fit. Start with the shotgun sling guide and verify your exact model’s attachment provisions.
Crossbow: compatibility information comes first
We did not identify a confirmed crossbow-use review for this selection. See the crossbow sling buying guide and fitment checklist for the compatibility questions to resolve.

Frequently asked questions
Are these real McLean customer reviews?
Yes. These are excerpts from approved product reviews already published on McLean’s website. Each excerpt links to its original review. Verified-owner labels are shown only when recorded on that review.
Are these separate ratings for hunting, rifles and shotguns?
No. The sections organize selected feedback by what the reviewer actually mentions. They are not separate use-specific rating averages, and the rifle and shotgun listings share review content.
Does McLean have a confirmed crossbow-use review in this guide?
No confirmed crossbow-use review was identified for this selection. Use the crossbow fitment information to check compatibility; this page does not supply crossbow testimonial evidence.
Can these reviews guarantee my fit or comfort?
No. They report individual experiences. Body size, clothing, mounting locations and the carried equipment can change fit and comfort.
