Large lot of carbine slings on the bay

Guy out of Italy icon

on eBay has a fairly big batch of carbine slings for sale. Only one picture but seems righteous. Looks like an auction lot from a parts crate or arsenal, something like that. Looks like several early khaki ones mixed in which aren't coming up very often any more.

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.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Well, I ordered one so we shall see. I imagine they will all be sold by the time it gets here from Italy icon

so any comments I have likely won't be of any help in a purchase decision but I will post a picture(s) when it gets here. Thanks EinsteinTaylor

Check his other items too. He's got several Carbine sling listings of different types. The WWII marked slings look to be in good shape - at least most of the ones pictured.

The other items is what made me decide to buy. Looks like he specializes in WWII items and everything looked to be correctly identified and so on. I'll update when mine arrives.

Still better than the $200+ I've been seeing asked for WWII ones.

The days of cheap carbine parts are behind us I fear.

Thanks for the feedback on the seller. Makes me feel better about the buy.

Picked mine up from post office today. It's the real deal. Very happy with my purchase.

**Banjo1928** · 07-26-2016 10:45 PM

Mine came today pretty fast for a package from Italy icon

. As I'm new to the M1 icon

Carbine and its accessories I have posted a few photos of my sling. Looks, feels, and smells like the real thing. I did not spring for the higher priced dated ones he had for sale but it is marked with an S N I think. So I will leave it to your comments. I think you would call it OD green.

That's a $100+ sling in my area. Nice.
