allyballybee Posted March 18, 2019 Share 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping someone knows someone with a penchant for sling making and a reasonable price point (not holding my breath) I fashioned something out of an old bit of belt, which loops under the F2000 and through the slots which holds well enough then attach a single point to the ring.

Supporters Druid799 Posted March 19, 2019 Supporters Share 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 .
