allyballybee Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Hey guys, Struggling to find a F2000 sling that doesn't cost an arm and a leg in shipping from the states. Does anyone have any suggestions of somewhere that would even make a custom sling in the UK or has made one themselves? I got a Swiss Arms one from Amazon Italy and the damn thing doesn't even fit, despite being advertised specifically as a sling for it!

Didn't even fit the P90 that it also said it would fit. Had to modify it to fit the P90. I am in the same position as you.

I feel a little better knowing i'm not the only one falling foul of this awful abomination of a sling haha. Took me an hour or trying before i realized, it's just not long enough (giggity). Hoping someone knows someone with a penchant for sling making and a reasonable price point (not holding my breath)

Supporters Druid799 Posted March 19, 2019 Supporters Posted March 19, 2019 Many moons ago I made a sling for a friend who had one , ruff mock up of the sling ; there were two buckle straps holding the sling in place and then you had an extra double thickness strap that has a floating D ring over the stock so it could be used ambidextrously .
