    Need a 1907 style 1" sling

    Does any one know of a decent one? I want it for a .22 that is just too small for a 1.25 sling.
    All I can find that are 1" are poor quality slings.

    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've had some Uncle Mikes slings for over 25 years and they're great...

    I have one of the Uncle Mikes slings but the keepers are too big and the hooks don't stay hooked. I guess I could try to fix it.

    The sling itself actually looks to be of pretty good quality.
    The hooks are a little straighter than the hooks on my others. That might account for the not staying put.
    The keepers on the other hand are way too big and have the ends butted together not overlapped like my others. They are stapled together not sewn.

    I think mine are stapled with a little diamond shaped staple.

    Mine has those same staples. They seem plenty strong. I'll try to undo them so I can tighten the keepers. Can't hurt.
