Scarce Original WW1 US M1907 Sling For 03 Springfield or M1917

Description: Offered is an original World War One production United States military issue Model 1907 leather sling made for use with the 1903 Springfield or Model 1917 rifles. This will also fit an M1 Garand (the M1907 was used extensively with the Garand during World War Two) and was used on Trench Shotguns as well. This unmarked sling is correctly has brass claws, both of which remain tight and solid. It also has both of its original sewn keepers. This sling is full length and has never been modified, repaired, cleaned, or polished. While it shows one area of surface wear, that area has no rips or tears (or even cracking) and remains very solid. Overall the sling shows only minor wear (and would likely clean up quite nicely if one were so inclined) and has very little cracking…far less than expected for a sling that is over a century old. These slings have become difficult to find, as the repros and fakes greatly outnumber the originals. It is offered as pictured and is considerably more solid than most you will find of this era. Overall, a scarce and desirable World War One era sling that will display well on your rifle.
