Sorry meant to type canvas sling

Looks like a web sling to me.

Does appear to be overly wide. I'm thinking musset bag sling , but I don't see the buckle slider for one.

I could be wrong, but I think the sling is from the early 2.36 bazooka. The early 2.36 Rocket Launcher came with a little wider canvas sling, later the 2.36 used the canvas M1 rifle sling
