    What type of sling is this?

    I bought this sling about a year ago and I’m not sure what it is. It’s too short to be either a M1903 or M1904 sling. It is about 63.5in long with its button flap folded over. There are no holes after the button hole. Marked Rock Island Arsenal, 1904. Any idea what type of sling this is? See attached pictures.
    Thanks,
    Jarrod

    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.

    Isn't that a Kragicon sling? I guess it's actually for the Trapdoor rifle but they used it for Krag too.

    I did not realize that they made slings for Krags that late, thanks.
