[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Which Sling

Posted: 3/19/2006 4:34:11 AM EDT

Iam building a retro M16a1 look a like and i have a question on the slings that were on the M16A1 weapons. Was it a green sling or a black sling. I would like to have links to the diffrent places that sell brand new ones. Any help would be appreciated!! Note My M16A1 does not have the shell deflector and forward assist.

What I have seen was an OD green sling with a J hook and keeper, I think they used black ones on the A1 also. I have seen them on the net in a few places called a Marine sling. Hope this helps.
