Hi,
I bought a sling that I thought went on my Eddystone M1917 but I am not sure as it will not thread through the sling swivels. The one I bought says Nobuckl patent # 7-21-14. I am not sure if the swivels are the wrong ones or I have the wrong sling. The buckles won't go through the sling swivels though. Thanks in advance. |

I got a repro No-Buckl sling for my M1917, it's kinda weird, and it took some jimmying to get the thing through.
This link was immensely helpful in getting it set up, too. |

Thanks! |

Thanks! Welcome. That was the part I had to wrap my head around, too. And the buckle-strap junction, where they're riveted together, is slightly wider than the opening in the swivel will permit. I usually have to wiggle laterally while pulling it through; that's what I was trying to get at with the "jmmying" bit. |
