521T replacement sling

Post by DCM »

Greetings all, I am new here and hope someone knows where to find a 1907 style sling with steel hooks 1 inch wide. I have found several with brass but to be honest most are cheap and brass is not original to the rifle. I hope a request like this is within the rules of the forum, if not I apologise.

Thanks for the quick reply but unfortunately they carry what I have been finding all 1.5 inch width. I am beginning to think maybe I could change the swivels?? I was really hoping to have the 521T in as issued condition but may have to make this compromise. I have a 1907 milspec sling in 1.5 inch and it's a beauty but I can't get the hooks through the swivels. I would appreciate hearing other ideas or opinions. Thanks
