This is a leather shoulder sling designed for use with Civil War muskets.

The sling has a fixed leather loop sewn to one end and a brass hook on the other, which is mounted under a sewn down flap. The hook engaged one of holes along the length of the sling, which allowed the length to be adjusted. There is also a sliding leather loop remaining. The sling is approximately 64” long overall including the brass hook, and 1 1/8’ wide.

This original musket sling is in excellent, used condition. Black leather; stamped “WATERVLIET / ARSENAL”.  Shows some use wear around the notch holes. Minor surface crack near the hook.  Leather is pliable and could easily be put onto a musket again.  [lcd][ph:L]
