Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a sling called the SUL that allows a user to keep their firearm in a safe position while still using their hands. The sling includes a magnetic body that can hold different types of firearms securely. This makes it easier for users to have their handgun on their person at all times while still being able to analyze potential threats before returning it to its holster.

One of the biggest challenges for a gun owner is having a safe means to hold or retain his firearm when he is not using the firearm.
However, this creates a problem for a user who needs to use both of his hands but is not in a safe enough environment to re-holster his weapon.
