What is the correct sling for a Polish underfolder, and where can I get one?

Thanks in advance.

This is a Polish sling.....Global Trades in Texas had them but I don't know if they still do.

Templar,

Do the Tantals take the same sling?

Well, here's a Polish trooper with the latest generation of Beryl, and it has a sling made out of the same material, the keeper is a little different.

Near the very end of AKMS production the slings changed. The webbing is very slightly different and the metal finishing process changed. The new Tantal slings have a shiny silver finish to the hardware. It is not incorrect to use the shiny version on a late production (late 80s) AKMS, but the traditional AKMS sling has the more matte finished silver hardware and slightly stiffer webbing.

anykey,

I might have an extra Polish sling laying in my box of misc AK crap

.. I bought 3 underfolder kits last summer 2004 and each came with a sling. Personally, I don't like them at all. I like the look of the Russian sling. IM me if your interested.
