MDT Mention - IMPACT SHOOTING REVIEWS THE OBI RIFLE LINK

Impact Shooting, owned by Pieter Malan, creates some amazing content specific to long-range shooting. Pieter, a former Pro Cyclist, got into the shooting sports in 2017 and spends his time creating photos and video, teaching precision rifle, and running the Impact Proshop, which carries high-quality shooting gear and accessories.

Pieter's latest video discusses rifle slings, offers some tips, and discusses a sling-less carry method.

In the video, Pieter covered "old-school" slings that attach via sling swivels, newer slings that leverage QD flush cups, and a neat and innovative product, the OBi RIFLE LINK. The OBi RIFLE LINK was designed by Ckye Thomas, the inventor of the MDT CKYE-POD.

The OBI RIFLE LINK consists of a Slide of Clamp Lock, which attaches to your backpack or chest harness and is essentially a shelf to hook your rifle to. On your rifle, either on the M-LOK forend or on a QD attachment point, you have the RP M or RP M Mini, which is essentially a hook that attaches to the Slide or Clamp Lock shelf.
