• This Musket sling is made of 7/8 oz. Natural leather with our solid brass 1 1/4" sling buckle, that is a mid-18th century reproduction buckle.  The sling is 1 1/4" wide and will vary in length, but we start with 60". If you would like the length a certain size, just let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your request. The sling ties on one end of the swivels at the bottom and loops threw the top swivel. The photo with the sling is attached on my French Fusil. The natural leather will vary in color somewhat. The color of natural leather will vary some from a light tan to a dark tan. The color will not be white. Also as the leather ages it will take on it's own patina to a darker color. The photo with the 2 pieces of leather shows a new sling unexposed to the light or weather, and the other piece of leather has been exposed to the light and shows how the leather darkens on it's own. We have no control over the color of the leather when it arrives at our shop, but it is not white. The photo with the darker sling has been on my French Fusil for several years, this is an example of how the leather ages on it's own. To darken the leather faster you can rub some neatsfoot oil into the leather. The sling buckle is sewn on the belt in our shop by my grandson. He does a fine job making our slings and enjoys making them. Let’s keep him happy by purchasing one of his hand made musket slings. The slings are made to fit the Brown Bess musket, Charleville musket and we also use them on our French Fusils. The slings are adjustable by sliding the buckle to the position that you want.
