WW2 Mosin Nagant leather rifle sling (S-stitched) FREE SHIPPING

This is a ww2 production Soviet M91/30 leather rifle sling. It is a real WW2 Russian item, and not a post-war made sling, or a copy made in another part of europe. It has the distinctive “S” stitching found almost exclusively on Soviet leather slings from 1930 to 1945. These early slings are VERY hard to find due to a high attrition rate. They were prone to rot, wear, tear and other damage after prolonged outdoor use through 4 years of war. This example has a riveted keeper and dog collars with riveted fasteners. The manufacturing date stamp is weak, but the last digit in the year is 5. So it’s either a 1935 sling with non-typical riveted collars and keeper, or it was made as the war was ending in 1945 with a pre-war pattern sling body but late-war keeper and collars. The original pre-war slings are identical to this one, but the keeper and dog collars would have been stitched and likely not riveted. These is a vintage piece 70 or more years old. No warranties are expressed or implied. See pictures – they are part of the description. You will receive the actual sling in the photographs.
