I'm sorry I only ordered 6. All are in almost new condition, USGI, with the flat buckle and manufacturers initials with 43 and 44 dates. Worth $6 I'd say.

Previous post is total BS but I'm thinking about posting it over at the CMP. Maybe I'll just let Dep do it as he enjoys twisting their panties over there.

I really did order 6 though. Pure impulse buy. I was at Sears tonight and that money would have been much better spent in the tool department.

Today I really did get my slings. 5 Post-War with 1950's MRT dates and 1 Greek thing. Now that I have them I don't know why I bought them. I guess it was the possibility of getting a WWII one. I've wasted more money in the past.

Sounds like 50 to 1 on the WWII slings.

I bet if RT40 ordered some sling he'd get all WWII then freak out about how cool they are and totally Amsdork out about it. Then call 'em pieces of shit and complain.

And threaten to throw them in a creek to get back at all the collectors... then sell them on GB for a tidy sum.

[I got 15.5 marked mrt with dates]

Where'd the half a sling come from?

OK, sling update. I was looking around the net trying to find info on slings but it seems pretty spotty. Anyway, a couple of folks say the slings what are WWII are a finer weave than Post-War. In looking over my National Treasures I find that 3 are fine weave, 2 are coarse, and on is Greek so that doesn't count. Of the 3 fine weave ones 2 have MRT stamps and one has what looks like a manufacturers stamp, but the ink is blurry and I can't read it. I dunno. I will say that for 6 bucks even the Greek one is quite serviceable. I dunno.

You always gotta be so fg negative about everything, man? In person, you come across as a decent person. Online, you come across as a ogre or something.
