Early Albanian Correct Sling
« on: December 18, 2024, 08:22:09 PM »
What would be the correct 1968 Albanian sling for the early issued SKS's, the single hook or the double leather tab?

Just taking a wild stab in the dark, but I'd pick the double leather tab if it were mine. I imagine either would be correct though.

Are there any more metal ones to be had from your supplier? I don't see many of them offered anymore.

I received the first sling today. It's got the leather loop but I'm trying to stretch it some cause it's a little too tight on the sling.
