Carbine sling swivels attached to the swivel ring on the carbine and to the leather strap worn over the shoulder. This prevent the carbine from being dropped or lost. These are surplus swivels that came from Bannerman Island. All are covered with light to moderate rust. Inside they are marked O.B.NORTH & CO / NEW HAVEN CT. They had contracts to supply 29,000 swivels between May of 1864 and June of 1865.
