To all of those in Indiana, or anyone who'll be at the convention:

I am in possession of upwards of 100 slings.  Standard GI webslings, mostly cotton, some nylon, mostly green, a few cotton black (no black nylon).  Got these from CJ Weapons Accessories in Jefferson City, MO.  The Minnesota guys turned me on to them.  I buy in bulk for our events - it's easier to sell them than loan them out.

I'm happy to sell them to you at my cost - $9.00 a sling.  I will bring them with me to the convention.  Please let me know how many you want, color and material either via PM or by posting on this thread.  First come, first served. 


I have requests from the following people as of 15:51 4/15/14:

UPDATE: 4/24: As of this moment, I have 37 OD green and 7 black slings requested.  The box I'm bringing fits 64 slings nicely.  I will have 20 extras - 8 black and 12 green.  First come, first served on the extras.  Cash and exact change will be very much appreciated.

Thanks for the generous offer Burbs.  If they have nice tight keepers, I'll take 2 green cotton.

I'll vouch for the quality of these slings. Just passed two of them off to shooting buddies of mine today. A steal at $9!

Just don't get them mixed up with the booth merchandise. I don't have the list yet, but slings may be on it.   O0

Can someone either bring a couple by my booth, or pick me up 2.

I green is fine, but if someone has their heart set on your last green, I really couldn't care less what color I get.

Yes, I will be there Saturday and Sunday.  If I'm not in the booth, there will be a box with the slings and an envelope to deposit the money.

ITB, doesn't look like I'm going to make it to the convention this weekend, so Slim is going to pick up my slings for me.

Thanks again!
