Cheap Slings

[NikatKimber]

Realized the other day when I was toting my .22 around shooting turtles that I need a sling for my a couple of my .22s. Any advice on any good deals, or what to avoid?

I know I want a "good" sling for my AR, but I'm not about to spend $50 or more on a sling for a $150 rifle.

I'd probably just throw a milsup web sling on them unless you're wanting something in leather.

Apple seed has one here
And the magpul one that has been posted on here by SgtMojo

that gives you a cotton or nylon sling, and then a more tactical looking sling....

Another vote for the GI web sling.

Brigadoon has a bin full of used black 1-1/4" slings with two buckles for less than $3 each. I've got one on my Marlin 60.

Ditto USGI.....

Yeah, I am a fan of the GI web sling for a simple over-the-shoulder sling that can be used as a shooting sling if you want... or if you aren't interested in a shooting sling, the GI "silent slings" with the plastic buckle on each end will work fine (and you can still use it as a hasty sling for support). They are usually even cheaper than the M1/M14 slings like on the Appleseed site.

For either one of those, you will need some 1.25" sling swivels rather than the more common 1" swivels. just be aware of that when you are buying studs and/or swivels for the rifle. For those I would go with Uncle Mike's.

Thanks guys. I'll have to see if I can find a USGI sling around here.

Where is this "Brigadoon" of which you speak?
