Replica sling for the German Kar.98AZ, Kar.98b, and Kar.98a Mauser rifles.  This is the first pattern with the sliding buckle and not the roller buckle.  The sling is made just like the original German Model following the pictures and descriptions from Paul Pietsch's book on Prussian equipment and uniforms, as well as from official pattern drawings.  Made of saddle leather, stitched with natural linen thread in the same pattern as the original.  Leather is dyed medium brown, again just like the original slings.  The stock frog is made for me and is the same pattern as the original.  I make the slings myself, from cutting, to dyeing, to stitching.  I have been making these slings for over 50 years.  Original slings are impossible to find and would be 3-4 times the price of this sling.  I make slings for the following German rifles:  IG1809, IG 1839, Dreyse Needle Guns, IG71, Kar.71, JB.71, 71/84, JB71/84, Gew.88, Kar.88, Gew.91, Gew98, Kar98AZ, Kar98b, Kar.98a, KKW, and DSM.  Check out my other listings.  Your satisfaction is guaranteed.  The rifles in the pictures are for are for information only and are not for sale.
