So, where is the EXACT spot for mounting if you're gonna poke a hole in your $200 + backpack?

Ted-, it's an imaginative idea and I always admire skills such as yours. It fits a definite need.

Years ago, Browning made a high end coat that had a "pebbled-textured" rubber patch on the shoulder top to provide texture and friction to hold the sling in place. I don't know if they still do.

It worked better than the slick, synthetic material for holding your sling in place which it didn't and you didn't have to be wearing a pack -- there's another idea. 😉

I have two of them. One of them is the original Duck Commander apparel from Browning which was a long time before they became widely known.

I just finished the second run of studs.

I now have a stock of the "gray" bead blasted aluminum studs

Studs for powdercoat have been delivered to the coating house and should be done soon.

I like the idea. Haven't found time to even mountbthe scopes on my last two customs or I would find a coat to put one on.

To respond to Dre, I invent things a lot of times because they are needed or need to be invented. Haven't gotten "paid" persae for any designs. Have gained respect of Collegues, made lives and jobs easier, and been blessed with more opportunities than I deserve. If it was only money a lot of things wouldn't exist. In fact, I am pretty certain the majority of Start-Ups aren't close to profitable for the first 4-5 years. I get the impression Ted does these because he saw a need, likes the intellectual stimulation, and likes seeing his design being used by his Friends. Pretty sure 20 or 50 dollars he isn't retiring. I get the impression he isn't the retiring type anyway.

Thanks for the kind words gremcat.

Havn't tried a Feankenstud Slingamarig Sling on a coat but It probably would work as long as the zipper was pulled up high enough.

I'm surprised you don't have black as a color option as of yet.

The latest version looks great. I think I'm going to need one for this fall...

I don't think my request would include the words:

"I'll like to buy a black stud off of you." laugh

Nope.... The "https://www.paypal.me/frankenstud" shows as the address, but the page is blank for both links.

Must be my machine?
