SKS and Arisaka perhaps?

Left two look like Russian submachinegun slings. One on right is Czech vz52 58 sling

As said above the right hand sling is a Czech VZ52/57 sling and the middle sling is a Russian PPSH SMG sling. The left one looks like a Russian canvas sling for the German K98k's they captured in WW2. A flat on picture of the top(in the picture) attachment point would show for sure. If that's what it is it's a pretty rare sling as few appear to have been shipped here with the rifles.

Thank you!  Here are both ends of that wider-body sling:

Thanks for the pictures,  that sling isn't for a RC K98k unfortunately. Its been called a Naval sling for a Russian SVT Tokerav rifle but this is in dispute and it may be for a PPSH SMG as well.  Its a less common sling though so hand on to it.

Not sure, but I can tell you with absolutely certainty that none of them are Arisaka slings.

agreed on the right sling.  I bought one to put in the small fixed sling loops on my CZ 452 fullstock .22 rifle.  while a milsurp sling it still doubles as a classier old world sling being canvas and leather.

The middle and left slings are Soviet style ppsh slings.  They were attached to any weapon available, nobody cared about correct slings for rifles, carbines, or smgs.  Very similar slings were also made in Bulgaria.  Determining what sling is correct is mostly speculation among collectors.  Without clear stamps and dates it's hard to say exactly when or where these types of slings were made.
