What are the best slings out there for a Century underfolder?

Best slings?   What exactly are you looking for?  Just a sling or some combat type single point attachment?

I'm a fan of the standard sling, myself.

Same here, keep it simple.

Me three.....with that rifle, I'd keep it simple with a standard AK sling.  You can get a "black" AK sling if you're going for a more tactical look. I actually died one of my many slings black to mate with the all black Arsenal SAS M-7 under folder.  

Since it's an underfolder, another option you could do is get a one-point sling. But even though it's an UF, the 16" barrel may hang so far down your leg it'd be anoying during carry. They tend to work better for folding SBR's and AK pistols with a rear sling loop.

Just go with standard sling and let it hang in front with enough slack to shoulder the extended stock.

I have Bulgarian, Polish and the Romanian green nylon slings and out of those three I prefer the Romanian though I used to give them away when I sold parts sets to people.

Copes has the E. German grey ones

DPH has Polish ones but Scott's shipping seems to have gone way up.

K-VAR has a few different types in stock, I think shipping is about $11.00


DRich, beautiful rifle.  Too bad I decided to sell the 2 kits I got from Dan's when I decided to stop buying AKs or have them built.  Guess I didn't stick with that long.

Thanks for the compliment.  This started out as one of Dan's Grade 1 kits.  It was built on a GT/AUSA receiver by MCA last year.  I still have three of those kits stashed away with some receivers...for a rainy day, ya know.  :)

You should sell a couple of them to new guys here so they can experience a high quality Polish AK now that they aren't available.  Keep one for yourself and sell two.  You could make a decent profit on them.   No sense of them sitting in a box in a closet.  I am not sure what they originally went for, kind of remember, but you could make a $100.00 profit on each I am sure.

Thanks for the advice, but I don't need the money.  If I only wanted two kits, I wouldn't have purchased four.

Thanks for all the input I think that I will do a standard black AK Sling.  That is a beatiful rifle. I tried a single point today and i was thinking the same thing that it hung to low! I will post some pics tonight!

Good idea on the standard  black sling. DSA has em' if you can't find em' anywhere else.

Pesonally, I just died one of my standard green AK slings black at the same time I was dying one of the AK Man Purses I got.
