Milsurp rifle sling vendors

[wiscoaster]

My current project with my milsurps is getting them all slinged. Some came with slings but most didn't. I've ordered some slings from several different vendors but haven't yet discovered any vendor that covers all bases, so to speak. I want slings that are preferably used or surplus original military issue, but authentic reproductions will do if none available. If anyone has one or two good recomendations for online milsurp slings supply vendors, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!!

I went to IMA-USA to find a sling for my 1949 Enfield Rifle No.4 Mk2.
Got one stamped 1949.

I usually go potluck on GB or eBay, no particular vendors.

Simpson's sometimes has some interesting original leather if you can stomach the collector prices.

I grabbed a bunch of these 62 inch OD Green long rifle slings for my AR's & AK's from ebay.

What's nice about this length of sling is I can "commie" carry my rifles with them. Which means I stick my head and shooting arm through the sling and carry the rifle at the ready. The sling is long enough to allow me to bring the rifle up to my shoulder and shoot while still slung.

It depends on what types of guns?

Liberty Tree has quite a good variety. Of course there’s always eBay, too.

Milsurp collection focus is bolt-action rifles WWI - Korea, instances of long and short (or carbine) variants from all major conflict participants. Pics already posted of most but scattered throughout various threads.

Thanks for the links.

I like the M4/M16 silent slings for ARs. They are simple and they work.

Coleman's has them in stock for $10 each which is a bit steep compared to when I ordered some for $4 each on sale several years ago.

The CMP has surplus USGI web slings at the North store this summer. Some were dated and commanded a premium. The undated ones sold for $10. I checked the website before posting, and didn't see them listed.

Turner Custom Saddlery has a really nice high quality reproduction M1907 sling. I got one for my 1903 Springfield and another for an M1, both CMP rifles.

If just using as a carry strap, those work well and are extremely simple.

Jim Thompson sold me a few. Nicely made. Don't want to post his email on the internet. PM me for it. He wrote a Garand Book.
