Yessir, it's not common knowledge that in the emergency of ramping up to fight the Big One, Uncle Sam caused web slings to be manufactured for all those 1903s, A3s, and Garands he was piling up!

     And when the Korean War came about, once again Uncle supplied web slings to GIs for their Garands.

     KW slings have the same small buckle with sharp corners which WW2 slings had, but the keepers were the late ones you see on most postwar GI web slings - ie, they are heavier metal and have a reinforcing rib across them.

     In addition, there are two variations to the web material: One is the standard green web; the other is like a USMC belt , the one with a pattern of vertical "ribs", and tends toward brown/tan. 

     If you want an authentic sling for your KW M1 Garand or that Springfield M1903A3, why not get an original one?

      Expect there to evidence of use, but not heavy "field use". In fact, prob little to no use in the fiield...

      Consider the rarity, the age, the provenence, the autenticity when put on your Garand. Where do you find original US GI, KW slings?

     This batch is typical used, but in my opinion would grade at least Very Good - and maybe even a little better!

      You can't lose out at this price for a genuine Korean War US GI Rifle Sling.
