50kg of Kerr sling buckles recovered

[RRPG]

This does indeed appear to be the case browningautorifle. Although, given the lack of material we have found, we have come to the conculsion it was just the buckles that were dumped, rather than the whole slings. We have found other areas where it was obvious the cloth went into the ground as well, (for instance I found an area with thousands of Vickers cloth belt brass strips and starter tabs in, which had obviously suffered some fire damage........so they basically chucked arms full of cloth belts in the pit and set light to them), but in the area where we found the Kerr sling buckles, no such evidence was found. I do have 50kg of them so, if you need a couple, please let me know

the cloth went into the ground

You don't suppose they burnt them all do you? I guess you can tell by the color of the brass after. I know that IS the practice even today. Thank you for the offer, if I thought I could resurrect one I'd do it in a sec...
