Does anybody have any suggestions for leather k98 slings? I dont care about historical accuracy, being quality and practical is more important to me. Looking on ebay the ones made by "man the line" look to be cheapest anyone have reviews on these or other suggestions? thanks

They are pretty much all the same.

Man the Line has a terrible rep in filling his orders.  

Go to At The Front if you want a place that will stand behind the product if it if junk.

They are all made in China or India anyway so they are not wartime quality but they will last you a lifetime under normal use.

If you are going to spend the cash, do it right.

I have one on my BYF 44 and I'm happy with it.

Most of the aftermarket repros suck balls.

Try and fine a surplus Israeli 98k sling they are around.

Yugo M48 slings are another option.  They don't have the slide lock or keepers that the German k98 slings had, but it is a military leather sling for the same price or less than the made in India repros.

I ordered a repro sling from Landser Outfitters. Shipping was fast and the quality is exactly what you would want.
