Title: Anyone know where I can pick up a couple of the clips from a USGI Sling
Post by: SparkyWatson on September 29, 2011, 05:25:33 PM
Any website have these for sale?  I've searched around but I can't find just the clip anywhere.  If all else fails, I'll just order 2 more complete USGI Slings from the appleseed store but thought I would ask here first and maybe save myself a few bucks.

Thanks!

Numrich Gun Parts has them.  I've bought quite a number of the clips only from them.  Be sure and get the 1 3/8" ones.  They're a couple bucks each.

I have quite a few slings that have the hooks on both ends.  And I took a dremel to some of them and narrowed the clip part.  Allows you to quickly adapt a sling to folks with fixed 1" sling swivel loops.  Just clip-em in.  Works great for Finnish M39s.

Exactly what I needed and only $2.25 each.

Thanks for the link!

Will these 1 3/8" hooks work on the 1 1/4" sling swivels?

Thanks

I'm expecting they will.  If no one knows for sure, I'll make sure to post back here after mine arrive.

Had them for a few days before I finally had the time to verify last night.  Yes, they do work fine on the 1 1/4" sling swivels.

Thanks again David.
