That must be where the idea that they made a tan sling came from. There are a few there that sure look tan. Just washed out OD3 I think. Looks like he kept them all just as he got them.
That's some good "collection style eye candy" there, I'll be looking forward to reading that article for a certainty.:D

Those all look to be web slings, not leather. Hopefully his article covers the leather slings that were issued during WW2.Quote:

I'm interested in whether his article can help me vet this sling as the real deal, ... or a Repo.
Leather is his current project, he says :) BTW, the magazine should start going into the mail next week.
Sounds correct, show us and we can help...Quote:
