F2000 sling

[allyballybee]

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!

I bought the exact same sling and didn't fit my F2000. 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)

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.

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 .
