Sling for Model 12

[duel007]

Hi, long time lurker, first time poster.

I've done a lot of searching, and can't find much on this.

I'm looking for a sling for my '51 Model 12, but I don't really want to scratch up the barrel and put a hole in the stock. Any suggestions?

Here's a pic for no reason of the Model 12 in question.

Here is how the factory did it.

I have a sling for my A5 - basicly a leather strap with a "noose" on each end. Since it has no vent rib, even with the sling on, it doesn't interfere with the sighting.

Thank you for the response, both of you. Any idea on where I can get one?

Just did a quick web search, "Leather slip-on shotgun sling"

One of the results:

I'd tell you where mine came from, but Mr. Oldperson's basement is now empty....

Mine is kinda close to the one in the link; at least from that, you'll see what I meant in my original not-too-detailed post.

good shooting!
