    Question Pattern 1907 Rifle Sling

    I am seeking advice as to what length rifle sling suits my Enfield Riflesicon.

    I am wanting to purchase two Pattern 1907 slings from Turner Saddlery. One for my 1942 Lithgow No 111* and one for my 1955 Fazackerly No 4 Mk 2.

    As it is a long way from Turner Saddlery in Alabama to South Western Australiaicon, I would like to get the lengths right first time.

    My options are 50", 52", 54", 56" and 58".

    Your advice is appreciated.

    Cheers

    Paul

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Paul,
    Go for the 58 or 56 and you can cut it back to the length required.
    Or I can sew it back together for you!!

    Original military issue P'07 leather slings were 50". You can get them longer depending on how tall and long your arms are.
