Where is the best place to buy NOS Retro slings? I just got one from Brownells and feel like sending it back to them. Its so thin the clasps dont work (wont hold tension) and its nylon .

Found some on ebay for $13.95 he has 8 left if anyone needs one here is the link .

Yeah , these are the new OD green cotton slings with New hardware USGI for the M1 /M1A

Got a surplus outlet close to home.  $13.95 seems high unless seatbelt type or it includes shipping.  Think Armalite has USGI slings for $10ish nylon.  Charleyssurplus has new caged M-1 garand's for $9.20 but has $30 minimum.  They also have some other pretty cool stuff including govt re-pack A-1 type E stocks.

For handguards I'd contact team members Boywonder or Jhud.  Should have adds on EE which is a good place to look.  If not shiney enough they usually polish up pretty well with a little compound and elbow grease.
