Release the strap holding the barrel with a gentle pull on the pull tab, and you can shoulder your rifle or shotgun instantly. Especially useful for pheasant hunting or similar scenarios when quick reaction time is key.
-
MODULAR & ADAPTABLE
Customize your Integrator loadout to precisely match your style of hunting:
Add or remove pouches, holsters and various add-ons to have all your critical gear with you, but nothing more, nothing less. Keep it lightweight and perfectly organized at all times.

GENUINE PATENTED INNOVATION:
The Saltstone Integrator was granted US Patent #12467715 in 2025, confirming it is a true historic milestone in the way a hunting rifle is carried. For hundreds of years people carried using a sling, and now we believe it's time for a change.

FAQ
- What is the Integrator?
The Integrator is a Hands Free Rifle Carry- and a Quick-Release System combined in a super light vest. It is a modular vest that allows you to attach and carry the gear of your choice, and to have everything within reach when needed. - Who is it made for?
It is made for hunters who spend long days on the field, and get tired of carrying their guns on their shoulders or on their backs. - What problem does it solve?
It makes it much easier to carry a heavy rifle, by distributing the load on the entire upper body. It greatly reduces fatigue and missed shots. It helps focus on the fun part of hunting, and makes it much more enjoyable. - How is the weight distribution achieved exactly?
The weight of the rifle creates a rotating force on the upper body: that rotating force is transferred to both shoulders AND the ribcage, thanks to the patented design structure encompassing the entire torso. This specific design was created considering specifics of the human anatomy and the way forces interact with the human torso. - When do I need it?
. If you feel like your gun is way too heavy to carry, and your shoulders get sore after a while
. If your sling keeps sliding off your shoulders and want something stable instead
. If you’d like to stay prepared for shouldering but at the same time enjoy the comfort of an all-encompassing carry harness
. If you need both hands for hiking, climbing, glassing, or helping others around you
. If you’d like to be able to reconfigure your loadout to precisely match your type of hunting, and not have to carry any bulk
. If you’re looking for load carry vest that’s lightweight, breathable, and suitable for hot climates
. If you’re looking to solve the rifle carry problem while also keeping your existing bino harness or chest rig setup - What type of guns does it work with?
It works with all types of long guns, including shotguns and rifles, with and without scope. Both the cradle and the safety straps are adjustable in width and length to accommodate guns of various characteristics. - What type of hunt is it for?
It is suitable for both small game, such as birds, turkey, pheasant, rabbit, squirrel, etc, as well as big game. The difference is in the loadout, the type of add-ons you want to add.
It is especially useful for pheasant hunting, when reaction time is key. - What makes it unique?
For 200 years hunters kept carrying the same way, using the classic shoulder sling. The inventor, who is a hunter himself spent countless days on the field, thinking how to make it easier to carry a heavy gun, while maintaining safety, readiness and freedom of movement. So he came up with the integrator, which was awarded a US patent in september 2025. - Does it work on the left hand side?
Yes, it absolutely works on the left hand side as well, it only takes 2 minutes to reconfigure the setup so that both the cradle and the safety straps are attached to the left hand side, and all other equipment can be re-configured just as well. - What type of add-ons does it take?
Currently there are 6 add-ons that could be added, these are:
- Anti-spill ammo pouch - for shotgun shells, it is accessible but prevents accidental loss of shells
- Game pouch that keeps its shape even when empty - ideal for phaesants, quail, rabbit and other small game
- Tripod holster - for hands free carrying of a tripod or a shooting stick
- 5L Pack - that can be placed on 5 different positions, including chest, back and the sides. - Does it work with my existing gear, like a Bino Harness?
In 2026 we are releasing various adaptors that make it possible to attach your existing bino harness or chest pack system. We’ll be releasing an official compatibility list of supported 3rd party accessories that can be attached to the Integrator. - Does it work with my existing backpack?
The Integrator works well in combination with backpacks: You just need to put on the integrator first, and then wear the backpack over it. - Can I attach the carry cradle/holster and the quick-release strap to my existing backpack to achieve the same?
No, the Integrator vest can only achieve the promised weight distribution effect when using the original patented Integrator vest to carry the rifle, because only that has the specific ergonomic design required for balanced weight distribution.
A retrofit backpack attachment solution would only add additional weight to the shoulder, or would potentially limit mobility, if attached to a waist belt. - Can I use it to carry a bow or cross-bow?
Not yet. We are working on a solution, but the Integrator has not been designed to carry a cross-bow or similar archery equipment. We will be releasing a purpose built solution for that in the future. - Can I wear it over a winter jacket or a t-shirt?
The Integrator can be worn over any layer of garments, as it has adjustable straps on all sides and the front and back, so you can adjust it for both lightweight summer clothes, as well as winter layers. - Can I attach additional Cradles to carry 2 or more guns?
Yes, currently the Integrator ships with only 1 cradle included, but we’ll be releasing the Cradle as a separate product in March this year, and then you’ll be able to add a 2nd or even a 3rd Cradle to your setup. - Can I carry my gun on the back with it?
Yes, you can mount your rifle on the back of the Integrator. There is a video that explains how to do that under the Video Manuals.
- Is it safe?
As long as you follow the safety instructions detailed in the user’s manual, the Integrator is perfectly safe. Always make sure to have the “safety switch on” while your gun is holstered.
• Where does the name Integrator come from?
. It does what it says, it essentially INTEGRATES your various gear into a UNIFIED setup, it becomes the CENTRAL element of your loadout.

My New Essential Gear
— Camille B., FranceI mainly use the Integrator during wild board driven hunts, as it allows me to hold my rifle in position at the stand for long periods without tiring my arms. I also use it for stalking, especially roe deer, since it keeps my hands free and carries all the gear I need, including my shooting stick attached directly to the vest. It’s genuinely very practical, and it has now become one of my essential pieces of equipment.

Game Changer
— S. Hansen, GermanyI picked up the INTEGRATOR at IWA in Germany, and have been very happy since. Took it to Greenland most recently, for stalking some Caribou, and it was great help during those long stalks. You can barely feel the weight of the gun. Definitely recommend!

- Sizing is UNISEX, meaning it applies to both MEN and WOMEN:
- The Integrator features adjustable straps that allow it to expand up to 10 inches, that's plus two sizes, comfortably accommodating heavy layers such as winter jackets.
- Make sure your measure your chest in a t-shirt or bare chest, in order to pick the correct size! Measuring over heavy layers like a jacket might result in picking one size too large!
Super cool concept and easy to use! Not sure why not one thought of this sooner. Game changer not having to carry the shotgun all day while hunting.
The system securley holds the gun and yet it is easy to release when needed.
Absolutely love this carrier. It fits over my jacket with layers, and even my hunter safety harness system. Im a bigger guy at 6ft 320lb so the fact all my gear fits with it comfortably is huge!
I’ve been using this on our ranch while checking fences and moving cattle.The quick release works smooth every time I need to shoulder it fast, like when a coyote pops up unexpectedly.The weight distribution keeps my shoulders from aching after hours of walking uneven ground, and the MOLLE panels let me add an ammo pouch without everything shifting around.The hands free setup is the real win. I can open gates, handle tools or grab a water bottle without fumbling.One afternoon I spent fixing a water line in rough terrain and never once felt like this gear was dragging me down.The Cordura fabric holds up well against brush and occasional dust. The fit is great.The buckles are secure but took a minute to get use to when my hands are cold.Overall its changed how I carry on the ranch. It’s solid gear for anyone who needs reliable access without the hassle. Well worth this price point.
I have tried a variety of carriers over the years, most of which attached to my belt or waist and required me to keep a hand on the stock at all times. I haven't really found any I was pleased with until now.This unique modular carrier in a vest platform changes the game. It is hands-free if you wish. I still keep my hand on the stock as I walk but can use both hands as it is securely affixed to the vest and rests in the stock pouch. The speed I can engage the device is amazing!The vest is very comfortable and fits my 5'11" 180-pound frame perfectly due to the full range of adjustment with the straps. I have never seen buckles like the ones that come with this—they are simple to attach and absolutely secure. Quality of the vest is top-notch.Note on Layering: Wearing this over a vest works well, but practice and vest adjustment may be required. Importantly, I still have full access to all of my pouches and pockets on my regular vest while wearing the carrier.You can choose a couple different included quick releases depending on style and whether you are using a scope or not. The release is very easy to operate, smooth, and quick. The only thing I have had any issues with is operating the buckle when securing while wearing my gloves. Not bad, but I don't keep the unit buckled in when in game., it is in my hands ready.Since originally receiving this, I have added the shell pouch and believe this rig with the optional game bag would be a nice lightweight training unit or warm-weather setup. I chose the tan color since I wear blaze orange clothing. This way I can use it for times when I don't need to be seen as easily.The price runs along the lines of much of my hunting gear. Good boots, vests, and other quality gear have a cost, but this is worth it when you are really in the game.
Alright, so let's get straight to the point: I was looking for a kinda harness or vest, that I could attach my rifle to. Came across this piece of gear which seemed to have what I was after.Packaging is all neat and tidy, includes a pretty detailed printed manual, that walked me through the initial setup in 5 mins.Took it for a spin the next day, with my usual minimal setup, and spoiler alert: it just worked!Had to re-adjust the straps a few times on the field once the whole vest settled in, but then it became noticeably more balanced and just a lighter feel in general.The quick release thing worked as promised, though personally I don't need that kinda subsecond reaction time.Materials and workmanship looks really fancy. Hope it lasts as long as it promises.
