Got a cherry IDF re-arsenal 98k coming my way in .308.
Going to actually choot it and want to see if anyone has run a modern style sling on it? If not, who makes the best repro sling to pick up? |

This was highly recommended when I was looking for a repro sling for my 1939 K98.

Not really… There was a guy that used to make fantastic repro slings for Mauser rifles that made one for a Chilean Modelo 1912 for me… Best repro sling I’ve ever seen. I contacted him about making one for a K98 I picked up about 5 years ago and unfortunately by that time he had retired.

Since I don't have mine in hand yet, wonder if yall can help.
- size of front sling loop (ex: 1") - width of K98 sling I'd love to convert a spare BFG sling I have and wondering what it would take to modify it to work. |

That would be pretty easy: thread the front of the BFG sling into the front stock band/sling mount. As for the rear, fashioning a Mauser-style keeper that is held in the stock cutout could be done from a variety of materials. If you don't want to do that, I like the U-Loop. Might work for your application. |
