The effectiveness of a weapon in combat conditions is determined not only by its power, but also by its location in the fighter’s equipment. The easier the access to the weapon, the faster the preparation for shooting occurs. A three-point belt has been developed for these purposes. The innovation, which appeared in the middle of the last century directly during wartime, significantly improved the quality of equipment and became entrenched in the modern uniform standard. In the PROF1GROUP store you can buy a three-point belt for AK of Ukrainian and foreign production.
Features of three-point belts
Classic weapon mount and has two attachment points. This is enough for measured shooting in a static position without repeated reloading. But while walking or running, military and sports biathletes, as well as hunters, need additional fixation and quick access to weapons. The three-point belt allows you to shoot without removing the weapon from your shoulder. In military affairs, such an opportunity is vital, and for athletes it adds speed and chances of winning competitions.
The three-point mounting can be easily adapted to a double or single setup. A cordura or polyamide sling is attached to the stock and fore-end. The bridge between the ends slides along the sling and is easily fixed. The belt goes around the person's neck, stretches along the back behind the shoulder.
With this position on the human body, the weapon can be quickly grabbed with one hand to fire at any angle relative to the target. You can also quickly throw the machine gun to the other side, let go of the weapon and grab a knife, pistol or any other object in your hands. In this case, the machine gun will be securely mounted on the shoulder. The model allows flexible adaptation of the length to the user's dimensions.
The three-point belt is suitable for any long-barreled firearm – machine gun, machine gun, shotgun. Unlike other models, it is more convenient in conditions of high fire loads, when constantly changing weapons, and during raid transitions. When monitoring checkpoints, escorting prisoners, detainees, it allows you to instantly prepare for shooting, aim while holding the machine gun in one hand. With this design, the user can quickly transfer the weapon from one side of the torso to the other.
Rules for choosing three-point belts
When choosing a three-point belt for an AK-74, you should pay special attention to its strength. The product must be made of wear-resistant material. Rubberized fabrics, dense cordura, and elastic polyamide are suitable for this.
The second requirement for the belt – practicality. It must be moisture resistant, not rubbed, not hardened in the cold, and provide the necessary slip. An additional mount for equipment and ammunition is also useful. We recommend choosing tactical equipment only from trusted manufacturers. A higher price in this case guarantees the quality and durability of the item of equipment.
Main criteria for choosing three-point belts:
- material – dense, tear-resistant, wear-resistant;
- accessories – metal, with reliable fixation;
- design – reinforced carabiner, enlarged backpack;
- color – pixel, olive.
The belt fittings must be accurately adjusted to its width to prevent clanking during movement, which could give away the operator's position. Fasteners must be securely fixed to the weapon, neither slipping nor rattling. You can check the quality of the product while trying it on in a store or upon receipt at the post office.
The price of a three-point automatic belt depends on the quality of the product, its technical capabilities, and brand. We strongly do not recommend purchasing ammunition from unverified distributors. To avoid low-quality counterfeits, trust official representatives of military equipment brands who confirm their right to manufacture with a license and quality certificates.
