Single point tactical slings attached to shoulder-mounted combat weapons–including shotguns such as the venerable Benelli Super 90 have
become quite popular recently in both military and law enforcement special operations circles. These systems permit the operator to mount the weapon on either the primary or
offside shoulder. As a result, during dynamic entries it becomes easier to "cut the pie" at doorways and move around corners, whether they are on the right side or left side,
without telegraphing the operators position. In addition, slings attached to a single point mount work especially well when operators are deployed wearing body armor or are
involved in breeching operations. The preferred mounting point for slings of this type is directly behind the receiver and in front of the buttstock.
