This is a beautiful great condition example of the web sling used on the U.S. M1 Carbine, a lightweight, easy to use, .30 caliber (7.62 mm) semi-automatic carbine that was a standard firearm for the U.S. military during World War II, the Korean War and well into the Vietnam War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is a bit unconventional, in that the rear end of the sling is not attached to a swivel, but instead is passed through a hole in the stock and held in place by the steel oiler for the carbine. The rear end of the sling is held in a loop by the steel keeper, which is often lost over time. The front end of the sling attaches to a sling swivel using the lift the dot snap to make a loop. Overall length is 49 inches long, and the sling is 1 inch wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example is in very good condition, but it definitely does show some wear from service. It is a bit dirty, and it has some light grease stains, but nothing major. The lift-the dot is functional, and the sling still has both pinched steel ends intact. The blacked brass finish on the snap is mostly intact. The sling is stamped \u003cstrong\u003eN-S \u003c\/strong\u003enext to the snap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReady to display or use with your WWII issue M1 carbine! A very scarce and beautiful piece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Original Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45092868456517,"sku":"ONSV26HAD097","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/files\/ONSV26HAD097__01.jpg?v=1780419914","url":"https:\/\/www.ima-usa.com\/products\/original-u-s-wwii-khaki-m1-carbine-canvas-web-sling-with-keeper","provider":"International Military Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
