Stopped by an estate sale today, and managed to come home with a couple slings. No idea what they fit, and an internet search is turning up nothing. Neither one has any name or markings. Both are cotton web. The pics turned out pretty bright, and both are considerably darker in color.

First is the wider of the two. It has a clip on each end.

Any ideas?:confused:

Next is the narrow sling. It's also cotton web, and looks like it was a khaki color when new. It has the same type of clip on one end, as the first sling does, but has a "D" ring on the other.

The 1st one looks like a backpack strap or a general purpose strap.
The 2nd..........I have no idea yet

Thanks for the help, gents. I thought the wider strap might have something to do with a duffel bag. Ryan, it is bad, but it sure takes the edge off sometimes. ;)

First one is the spitting image of a strap from my early issued two quart canteens. GP strap.
