Anyone know a supplier or someplace in the states that I can get a set of these?

Checking google , looks like most are just ordering thru Zahal. Youd be surprised how fast stuff comes from other countries. I use to order mil surp stuff from the UK.
Might be worth doing a group buy and just placing one big order if enuff ppl were interested.

Zahal is good to go, only 6.50 in American to ship to Ca, I ordered 2 IDF slings from them and it took 10 days to get here , shit they were quicker than Spikes Tactical.

seems like the same effect could be achieved by cutting up a piece of bicycle inner tube?

No.. not really.... the shit would be slippery and the diaper would start to shift position and you would loose your grip.....

Dunno if it's true, but I read somewhere they're to keep your sweaty hands from slipping on the plastic handguards (you know, like if you're in a hot Mediterranean country like Israel
 ). Maybe. Maybe it's just an affectation.
