I get more action on these than any other item I make. It is made from 8/10 oz Hermann Oak, 44" long and hand carved. I think this is the first one that I carved oak leaves on. That's all he wanted was some oak leaves and acorns.

Nice job on the carvings. I think those turned out very nice. It is no wonder you have lots of action on those.

Great work as always Chief, love seeing your stuff as it is a real inspiration

Every day you learn something is a good day. If you don't learn something every day, was it worth waking up for?

Chief i love the taper in that sling. very nice, thanks for sharing.

Thanks, I drew this out on Inkscape and had Blackriver Laser make me a template. It is based on the Cobra Sling and the Tandy Sling Kit. The problem with the Tandy Sling kit, besides the leather, is that the sling is only 37" long. That will fit BB guns, most .22 cal rifles and maybe an AR-15, but it won't fit .30-06, 7MM, .270, etc. The pattern here will fit just about anything, I haven't had one not fit a weapon yet.

Thanks,

Chief

Very nice. There is something very classic about oak leaves and acorns on a hunting rifle. Just one of those fairly timeless things.

Nice professional looking sling.

Great carving on the oak leaves & acorns.
