Bianchi Leather Rifle strap/Sling with shearling shoulder padding. Adjustable with one Conway prong buckle. Two brass Chicago screws. Two swivel clasps with the hallmark of #34 on one and #21 on the other, and an anchor. This is old, old, old….. Guessing 1960’s to 1970’s. If your looking at this you know what it is. In research I can only find one other just like it on the internet. It is sooo old the young guys at the local gun store didn’t even know what this was. There are 11 pre-made holes in the strap two of which occupy a Chicago screw. Current length 43 3/4 approx. Inches (tip of swivel to tip of swivel), can be lengthened out approximately another 10-11, but would expect a leather crease because has been stationary in set position assuming for decades. Shoulder strap length 10 inch x 2 1/2 inch wide and moves on the narrow strap which is 1 inch wide. Belt keepers are a touch over 1/2 inch wide. Touch of old vintage odor. I did clean the leather and condition with Lexol leather products. Ask questions, look at pictures, all sales final. As found vintage condition. Photos are considered as part of the description as well as Condition description.
