Need some help with mystery slings identification?
I would be greatful if anyone could help me ID the two slings in the photo. Top sling is 1 1/8" wide the lower is 7/8" wide. Both in decent shape so I hope I have somthing they fit or I will have to reverse purchase a rifle for each sling.

Be a shame to just have a sling with no rifle to go with it,,,that's just stupid!!...

I actually looked there first saw some close to the narrow one but not the wider one.
44 views and no hints? I hope they are that rare.

Top one looks French, any French from 1886 to present.
Bottom I'd guess South American Mauser.

French does look like a VERY good match for the top one.

I say the top one is a Type 44 Japanese sling. Dog ear and wire buckle. About half way down the page here: Japanese Sling Page
