NY legal model for when I'm over there. If I am stuck with 10 rounds it might as well be 10 rounds of .308!
Does anybody make a cloth sling in tan or brown? All I've found is OD.

I like it is it a synthetic stock or wood? I was looking at a NY legal one as well but was thinking about SA serial numbers and original parts. I think it was about $1,900 for a new SA

Synthetic. It came with the black stock and scout scope rail. I was given the tan stock which was missing the top handguard, so I ordered an Ultimak. MSRP is $1,987, and local retail is around $1,825 with a synthetic stock.

Looks really nice!!!!
Attachments might be different than you want, but proctor makes a brown sling: https://www.amazon.com/Way-of-the-Gun-Proctor/dp/B075QQLF19/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1524066192&sr=8-2&keywords=proctor+way+of+the+gun+sling&dpID=31ku5l32RvL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch |

You can still find tan SMLE/Enfield/FAL slings (original and repro) in the $25 and under range. Simple, very sturdy, and lightweight. They are more of a carrying strap than a shooting sling, however.

I haven't posted here in a long time, but I remember the work you've done in elections and for the 2nd Amendment so if you want this I'll send it to you. I've had it for 15 plus years so I can't remember exactly where I got it but it claims to be USGI and I've always avoided repros if possible. So it could be a repro but I don't thing it is. I have several on Garands and they are nice.
So just let me know. 2 conditions. 1)You have to post pics of it on the rifle and 2) if you don't need it anymore and still have it I could use the black plastic/fiberglass handguard that went around the factory scout mount. Number 2 is not necessary but I sure could use it, I broke mine.  ETA: How hard was it to mount the Ultimak. What did you use to ensure it was square and level? |

I got the stock back, but not the upper handguard. But I bet you there are a few sitting in our main store's warehouse, I'll check. If we have one I'll grab it for you. I did not mount the Ultimak. I'm embarrassed to admit I could not get the trigger guard out of the original stock it was in so tight. I gave it to one of our employees who was an armored in the 10th Mountain. He said he needed to use a rubber mallet to get it out. Springfield really jammed it in there when they built it. |

Ok PM me your address and Ill get it on its way. If you can find a handguard I'll take it but no big deal if you don't.
I'm trying to decide if I want to pony up for an Ultimak, try my dremel skills on a USGI or maybe even ditch the scout mount totally and go with a solid traditional handguard. I've experienced the super tight trigger group also, I thought I was going to break mine the first time. At least you don't have to worry about it falling off. 
ETA: I went and cleaned out my PM mailbox, it was full of crap from 2009

A simpler less costly and equally effective New York solution is an M1 garand. I even used one in three gun when I still lived there. Even though I am now in free America and can have any rifle and magazine I choose the M1 still gets a good amount of work

No problem, enjoy.
Don't worry if nothing turns up, I'll figure something out. As you shoot please keep us updated on how you like the Ultimak. I just picked up an Aimpoint PRO in the Academy 28% off sale so I may just get an Ultimak to mount it on. Got to love a sale that causes you to spend more money. |

How well does the Aimpoint work mounted on the rail that low? I just use irons on my Scout Squad, and have been thinking of mounting an Aimpoint

That’s cool, too.
It’s a great set up. I’m thinking of chopping the stock a bit to shorten the LOP and put on a Hogue grind to fit recoil pad. |

Pick up a Turner AWS in your desired color and thank me later.
ETA: Just saw you got it figured out. Nice looking stick and not a bad compromise if you gotta do NY. |
