| I have been kicking around the idea of makeing leather/canvas padded sling pads for the RPK, PKM, & RPD's. I would like to get everyones opinion here on if you think there is a nough demand to make them? |

Quoted:
for just the pads probly about 15$ total , I ask this as I have seen the padded slings go for as high as 60$ I just did a quick search and found Russian RPK slings for $40.00. I'd pay $40.00 for the real thing way before I paid $15.00 for something else, even if the other option was a superior product. If I buy a special sling for a gun, its because I want it to be correct. I'm not necessarily planning on bugging out with my RPK. |

$40 RPK sling
I don't care about being correct, but I'm not into leather ether. I am going with a wide canvas sling like the IDF style. |

It might not be stateside, but getting stuff imported straight from the Motherland is half the fun! Anyway, you asked for thoughts. My thoughts are that I would want the real deal or nothing at all for guns that are "toys". Same thing I did with my Krink. I paid a premium for the correct drop case and sling, even though I could get a way better product for a lot less. I would be interested in buying nice American made gear for my practical setups, but that doesn't apply to my RPK. |
