Why So Expensive????????

[Punch The Clown]

I never criticize anyone's sales. Caveat Emptor I say, but why the interest in this sling? I have a bunch of slings, a bunch of the same parts bags, and a printer, and I can always use some extra money. Is there something here I'm missing?

It appears to have been packaged in 2/79. I'm sure it is a WW2 sling!

I'm not so sure. The pictures aren't that great and it doesn't show the buckle/clasp.
Did they have that type of resealable bag back in 79 ??

There are 49 bids, so far, but only 3 different bidders and 2 of them really don't know to bid.

Another fool soon parted with his money.
Wish some of those idiots would find my auctions

Ziploc? A quick search shows the company started in the mid to early 50's.

Early WWII will have flat buckle and a tighter weave.
The price for what it sold at is not normal. Very good condition WWII Flat Buckles will sell for around $50 or so

Weren't some or most WW2 slings khaki in color? OD green was later IIRC.
