    The brass tabs are used when the slings are installed on the BM-59 series rifles. I'm not sure how but they are used with indirect rifle grenade ranging.


    Could they be used like this?

    Thank you! That makes sense. Do you have a firing position picture of the sling when used in this hasty indirect firing role?
