I took these photo's of my four slings so that the guy or guys who are looking to buy such a sling or slings for their collections can see why I'm asking what I'm asking for them. Anyway, I wanted to post some photo's of what such slings can look like. All are of thick harness leather. Original leather keepers for these slings are sewn AND stapled. One of the slings, the top one, is Mint or at least unused. I think that it's only been on one of my rifles. All slings are solid and devoid of splits or weak spots. Two of these slings showed up with the lower loop of the sling adjusted for securing around a shooters left upper arm like a competitor would use. One showed up on a 1920 National Match 03. Since all National Match 1903's made prior to the 1921 matches could only be purchased by Military Personnel, the rifle and sling might've been together since the 1920's and owned by a Marine who had fought in and survived WWI. Beats me...
Well, enjoy the photo's!
