    M1 Carbine Slings Help Needed

    I wanted to ask some of you guys out there that know much more than I do about carbines if the slings being sold on ebay that are coming out of Franceicon are the real deal. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    I have bought from a seller in Franceicon and his slings were real, but not cheap.

    If you mean that $135 dollar S.M. Co. 1944, I believe it is.
