Welcome aboard RobbieB!
Check out some of the other threads in this forum and some of the "retro-builds" threads. Look for a link to Moore Militaria. He has a good selection for a decent price, though I haven't gotten any of mine from him. Found it. It's in Dog1's So..you are thinking of a retro build...PICS and information thread. He has a few more links you may find interesting. Thanks for the save Alpha-Romeo3.  |

I bought a black one just like that one in the picture. I got a commercial model made by RRA called CMP (DCM) match sling which I purchased from ADCO Firearms. ADCO Firearms website link |

Hey, I just bought a green US sling (M14 style) for my Dissy with green furniture. It is just like the sling I had in the Corps except green instead of black. I got it from CDNN... for $6.99 (along with a bunch of other things I ordered. ) It's listed as NEW surplus. Check it out at their website here. I also got one of their AK/SKS green slings for my Yugo SKS. They also have the black M16 "silent slings"...not what I was issued, but I guess what the Army use on their M16s here for $2.99 No Expert |

Use the "link" button in the box marked Insert Tags:, just like you would use the bold, italic, or underline features. it is the one that looks like a globe with an "infinity" in front of it (its really a link)... just to the left of the icon that looks like a letter. It will prompt you first for the text, then the URL you want that text to go to. No Expert |

That sounds so complicated. I just type: {url=paste URL here}non-link text{/url} except with square brackets "[]" instead of curly "{}". |

It is a nylon strap with a buckle on each end. No hooks, no compression buckle as found on the M1 type sling. The Army uses them, and are basically only useful as a carrying strap. Barely worth the $3 they get for new ones. |

Serious target shooting? Turner or Les Tam. There are a few others, but those are the top contenders. However, I know a few HP shooters that use a cotton M1 sling mounted backwards and do just fine. |

USMC- Is that sling cotton or nylon? I seem to remember some OD nylon ones. Have a cotton one that is the same as an M-14 sling that came from Fred's Thnx, Moon |
