What these are nobody seems to know for sure, while they fit on Argentine Mausers, and look nice, they are either a much later than 1891 sling intended to be used on1891’s, or they were intended for some other Argentine Weapon, and just happen to also fit rifles. My personal guess is that they were intended for Argentine FAL’s, and ALSO as a universal replacement for other weapons. My guess is that they were manufactured in the 1970’s? Whatever the case, you know how 100% impossible Argentine slings are to find, so here is your chance. This is a very nice sling, and made of top quality materials. It has a few tiny scars, but is otherwise about mint. It is definitely Argentine in origin, with the traditional Argentine Green color. A very small number of these hit the market in the last few months but I could not identify a source. This one is about 47 inches in length and will probably be perfect for an Argentine Carbine. It would definitely attach to a rifle, but might not have enough length to adjust out far enough for some folks to sling over a shoulder…. Depends on your build I guess. You decide if it will work for your needs. I don’t mean to make anyoe nervous about this sling, it is really handsome and rare, just do not want to be dishonest about it either. If I still collected South American Mausers I would not be parting with it!
