And for those who find khaki more aesthetically pleasing, you can acquire one for $9.99.

That one says it is 30.48 centimeters long. Unless the converter is fibbing that's one foot long.

Your converter is correct. I just placed an order for one, scheduled for delivery Saturday. Update to follow.

I purchased one April 27th. It works great...no issues. The hardware is slightly different, but it holds under the pressure of hasty and loop without slipping. I'm planning on a few more for loaner slings and future rifle purchases.

I've ordered over a dozen of these - black, OD green, and tan.  They all work great.  Some of the keepers work better than others.  All seem to be standard length, certainly over a foot.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

I haven't wanted to post anything to compete with our store, but they're regularly $11 or $13 from the CMP. I ordered a dozen last time for me and other local instructors.

AMZN just delivered the khaki sling and it is indeed the standard length and not the super-snug 12 inch version.

Got the black today.

The cotton webbing is lighter weight, and the hardware is painted, not parkerized. I suspect it won't have the longevity of ours, but is otherwise functional.
