gewehr 98 sling?

[usmc3439]

I bought one from World war supply. Will post back regarding the quality of the sling once I receive it. Yes, the quick release attaches in the front of the trigger guard, this was done to set up the sling "parade style". Gewehr 98 slings had an additional ring that goes on a little hook behind the bayonet lug, this is used when the sling is attached to the front of the trigger guard. Will post pictures soon. If the rifle has a ring installed in the buttstock, that might be installed to use a regular sling. The original piece should be a solid piece of metal for the quick release buckle.
