Universal Sling

I ordered 2 of the leather slings. Both for Henry .22 rifles. They fit like they were made especially for them. The leather strap is very comfortable on the shoulder. I am very pleased with my purchase. I will highly recommend them to all my friends! Thanks October Country. Great craftsmanship. Great purchase. Love them!!

Fits the butt-stock tightly on my .54 cal Renegade with a 31" Round ball barrel. Needed this for handling the rifle while dragging a deer out as it has become increasingly more difficult after my two shoulder surgeries.

Picked this up for my .54 cal Thompson Center Hawken. Overall the sling has a nice look to it and the leather is soft and supple. The lace up cover is a little small for the Hawken but made it work. The most dissapointing is the thickness of the sling strap. It is definitely to thin for a rifle sling. If O.C. would sew two straps together to make one hardy strap befitting a heavy muzzleloader, it would be a much better product even if the price was increased.

This rifle sling is just the ticket for transporting your rifle while allowing your hands to be free for other tasks ie: climbing tree stands, covering steep or rough ground, dragging out game, etc. The fit is excellent not only on my flintlock but also is the perfect answer for the 100+ year old rifles that I intend to keep original. If you have long guns that do not have sling swivels installed this is the answer you've been looking for.

This is not the first of these slings I have ordered, and it will not be the last. As with all "One-Size-Fits-All" products, some amount of trimming and rework may be required to achieve optimum fit. I was able to incorporate a cut-down leather recoil pad under the sling ( I have it on a 54 Cal. Hawken- packs a whallop with big game loads) and fit the upper end of the sling to the fore-end in such a manner as not to interfere with the removal /installation of the ramrod. The front strap is thin enough that it does not interfere with normal sight picture. The strap is wide enough to distribute the load, so I expect that all-day carrying will not leave me with a sore shoulder. Looking forward to getting out in the field soon...

I put this sling on my Henry Big Boy .357 mag carbine and it looks, fits and functions great.

Hey, this is a top notch piece of leatherwork. Very functional and does not interfere with iron sights. Great solution if you don't want to install screw in studs for a modern rifle sling and ruin your replica Hawken. Recommended.

This is a nice looking and well made sling. It is fully assembled so you don't have to try and figure it out. I really like it when I want to sling my Flinter while scanning with binoculars.

The sling arrived today and it was the best thing ever. It fit well and adjusted quickly. Looks great and looks authentic.

Fits and looks good on my TC Hawken. Quality and looks period correct on my sidelock. Will buy a couple more. One for my Henry Big Boy and one for my Winchester 1897 Pump Shotgun. I choose to not drill holes and put modern type swivels and slings on them.
