New, American made reproduction WWII M1907 pattern leather slings for M1903 and M-1 Rifles. Many slings made early in WWII used the same brass hardware as those made in WWI.
These slings are made by us, in our shop in Columbia, Ky.
We start with the finest 8 oz. cowhide available*, strap cut it to 1.25", crease the straps, punch the holes with gang dies, and sewn them with custom made 100% linen thread from Delaware. The leather is thick yet supple and the color is the correct light tan of an unissued original.
This will fit any weapon with 1.25" sling retaining loops. Short strap is 23'' and long strap is 46''. Hardware is blackened brass.
*Our leather may come from USA, Mexico, or Brazil depending on the batch. We select the hides for best finish and quality. Lately (2022) the latter two countries have had superior leather.
Made in USA
Marked "Kirkman 1942".
