Do People Fake Slings Also ?

[jca]

I need a lesson from someone who knows slings. I know this doesn't quite pertain to the Carbine and all it's metal parts, but do people fake Slings, too. I have a '45 Inland that needs a Sling. I have a few, but there D tips. I read where they were never blued and the Buckle is thick and the Webbing is a different pattern and has a W Inside a Circle on the buckle and read that someone said they were fake. Both have the same name under the female side snap and appear different (Boston, Mass.) and they were all suppose to be Flat. Now I think there both fake. Can anyone tell by these 2... I was going to use one on my '45 Inland. Thank You for any help you can give.

Hi Frank, Try whatacountry.com. They currently have used original WW 2 era C-tip carbine slings in good condition for $52.00 each. These go pretty fast when they get them in stock. Regards, Jim
