    Some Boyt 1942 slings have brass hooks, but steel hooks predominate. Assuming the slings were in high demand at that time and were used as soon as received, by the time the 03-A3 was issued the brass hooks would have been replaced with steel.

    Was this sling USGI?

    It has brass hooks and the stitching appears to be the same as USGI 1907 slings. Brauer Bros Mfg Co, St. Louis.
