Curt, that shouldn't be a problem since shipping is not a problem. Let me know which Thompson parts you're looking for, I'm sure I can locate some!

Bill, I'll try to find markings. However, I do not want to put them out of the original wrapping and then be unable to put them back. I'll let you know.

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. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Promo: I appreciate any help.

The slings are stored in a circle. I opened many of them years ago. It is easy to get them back in the circle. Sometimes the slings are attached to each other with one's fastener attached to anyothe's slug, in a circle.

Thank you for any information you can provide.

Promo,
Your last picture....
Top Left Corner...
Is that part of the Gas Cylinder Repair Kit?

Also curious if you've unwrapped those slings yet?

Cheers,

Absolutely no plan what this part should be

. I'm new to M1 icon

Carbines.

No, haven't unwrapped the slings yet, since I did not have the need to (and I'm not sure if I can get them back properly). I offered Bill Ricca to make an offer and sell him the whole lot, but haven't received any answer to this.

Pulling out the parts today I also found a M1 icon

sling I've recently purchased. Took a closer look, and it was somehow interesting that the sling bears German icon

markings. See the pictures, "Zieh hier" would mean "Pull here" in English.

On which carbines would those have been used?

**browningautorifle** · 12-25-2012 03:52 PM

Some carbines were used by the Germans after re-arming after capitulation. They made their share of equipment to issue along with them. Bayonets and slings are just the tip. They also re-did the back sight to a notch on the receiver ring...for example...

**Bill Hollinger** · 12-25-2012 04:30 PM

The Zieh Hier is German icon

and says "Accused Here" Literal but probably "push"???

**browningautorifle** · 12-25-2012 04:36 PM

According to Google translate it's pull here...
