K98 Sling

[LJT]

Gents

I bought an dou45 coded K98 last week and it came complete with a gfg45 coded/WaA80 sling. This sling looks like it was made last week. What do you reckon? The WaA80 code is right for a dou k98.[Waffenwerke Brünn A.G., Werk Povaszka Bystrica, Slovakei]

I didn't pay much for the dou45 K98 (US$250) and wasn't expecting it to come with a sling.

FWIW: The dou45 is now number 17 in my K98 collection. Numbers 16 and 15 were also purchased this month and were a Israeli 7.62 for US$100 and a Yugo Preducze44 for US$150. I much prefer the original German issue K98's ( I have quite a few S42 and S42G coded non RC examples) but they are few and far between here in the UK now. RC rifles are still about in quantity over here for around the US$300 mark.
