Members newfiebackflip Posted December 19, 2011 Members Report Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) Hey everyone, I am looking for a pattern for a service rifle sling. I know where to get the hardware thanks to the search bar, but a pattern not so much. I have a wounded veteran friend who wants one for his newly acquired M1 and he has asked me to make one. If anyone could help, that would be absolutely amazing. Thanks, Edited December 19, 2011 by newfiebackflip Quote
KAYAK45 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 I just did a "google" and the m1 sling is is 1 1/4 wide which fits 1 1/4 swivals and is ~ 40 inches long at its total length. Good luck Quote

The forward piece is 48 inches long. The part attached to the back of the stock is 17 inches long with 1 1/2 inch sewn to the hardware loop in between both pieces.

Members Eaglestroker Posted December 21, 2011 Members Report Posted December 21, 2011 Out of curiosity, does anyone know a reasonable source for the hardware needed. The only place I've found the double prong hook wanted almost $20 for the pair. Quote
Members newfiebackflip Posted December 21, 2011 Author Members Report Posted December 21, 2011 I probably should of specified. The one im looking for has the two prong hooks and has a figure eight mid way through for stability. But thanks for your help so far everyone. Quote
