Abstract
The invention is a two-point firearm carrying apparatus attachable to a long gun having a first arm and a second arm. A spring with hooked ends attached to D rings on the arms is covered by a canvass sheath. The spring compresses and expands to allow sighting and use of the gun, and also to hold the sling against the chest when being transported. The first and second arms are adjustable in length depending upon the height and girth of the user.
