Will this sling fit my M1917 Enfield rifle?
The sling is designed for the M1917 Enfield rifle and is the correct length for it. Some slings may require the brass fittings to be adjusted with pliers to fit through the rifle sling swivels. The upper metal loop and clip may also need reshaping to fit through the sling.
What is the quality of the metal components on the sling?
The metal band is a lighter gauge than original slings, which can make it easier to turn around if shipped installed backwards. The metal clips are made in the style of later Thompson belts. Some slings have a poor fit between the upper metal loop and its clip, requiring adjustment with a file and pliers.
How does the sling perform in use?
Once installed, the sling functions perfectly and holds up well under the weight of the rifle. It can handle the recoil while shooting at the range. The sling provides good weapon hold both lying and standing, similar to a US17 leather sling but lighter.
Are there any issues with the sling's length?
The sling is the correct length for the M1917 Enfield rifle. Some slings may initially seem a little short but can be stretched out during installation. This sling is specifically designed for the M1917, which requires a longer sling due to wider-set sling swivels.
Is the sling durable for regular use?
The sling is of high quality and holds up well under the weight of the rifle. It can withstand the recoil during shooting. The construction is robust enough for use as a target rifle sling.
