Edgar Sherman Design ESD Paracord Guide – Coyote Brown

Edgar Sherman Design ESD Paracord Guide – Coyote Brown

Using paracord to connect your sling to a firearm is a lightweight, durable, quiet, field maintainable, repairable, modular, and affordable method. The main downside we’ve experienced with this method is that the overhand knot used to tie the paracord is bulky, often untucks from under the sling, gets caught in specific gaps on your stock, and, when exposed from under the sling, can untie over time. We set out to solve these problems and, in doing so, designed the ESD paracord guide.

The ESD Paracord Guide enables you to connect your ESD sling to your rifle using paracord, creating a smaller profile knot that is tucked away and contained within the webbing of your sling. By having the knot stored securely in the paracord guide, you no longer have to worry about the knot coming loose over time or untucking from the sling’s webbing and catching on anything and/or wearing into your neck.

The ESD Paracord Guides are made using the same trusted materials and processes as our Enhanced Foregrips (EFGs), and like all our products, are made here in the USA. The ESD Paracord Guide features two claws that keep your paracord guide and knot securely tucked in your sling’s webbing, allowing for consistent manipulation of your firearm. This ensures that your sling moves around your body effortlessly and never hangs up. The small bumps on the inside claws of the paracord guide also act as anti-rotation tabs to prevent rotation within the loop formed by your sling. After securing your paracord through your rail and/or stock and the Paracord guide, you can then tie and tuck a square knot into the paracord guide’s channel. The ESD Paracord Guides will add virtually no weight to your setup, weighing in at less than .2 ounces combined. They offer sound reduction capabilities similar to traditional paracord loops, but with the added benefits of strength and consistency to the knot, thanks to their concealment.

When ordering the ESD Paracord, you will receive two paracord guides, two pieces of 18” mil-spec 550 paracord, and a QR code link that leads to an instruction guide, all packaged in a reusable tin. We chose to package the ESD Pracord Guides in a tin because it provides packaging that serves multiple purposes beyond transport. The tins can be used in various ways once the items have been removed. You can use the tin to store a small fishing kit, a pocket first aid kit, or a small survival kit, or even use the tin to make charcloth! The possibilities are endless.
