Double rifle sling - homemade!

Look what The Wife made me today - ingredients:


  • 2x disused laptop bag slings (the same type)
  • Two adjustable buckles from something else, who knows what
  • Some lanyard material from another old laptop bag
  • An old dog collar's metal D-Loops
  • 2x Tikka sling swivels

Total cost: $0. This is the kind of crap that I cart around in a box from one house in one country, to another house in another country, and on it goes. Cos one day, it will be useful.

Comfortable as hell and easy to sling on and off. Will make carrying a 12lb varmint rifle up the hill a whole lot easier. Means I can use two walking poles for those dodgy bloody knees of mine.

(Can't find double slings here in NZ and have never seen one. Weird.)
 
Hi

Great idea realised!
Its called recycling and many have such 'boxes'!
I have one with old seatbelts, rucksac straps, various clips/buckles - had it many many years - hope to use at some point, unless I go underground first!

Great initiative well done.

I made one from old bergen straps, really comfy (more comfy than niggeloh), but I made something else out of it. Just a suggestion but if you side mount your sling swivels it will sit a lot better
