I recently switched my M1-A from the black figerglass stock to a USGI wooden stock. It sure feels and looks like I sneaked an old M14 out of the government armory. I rather like it.

What sling did the gov. issue on the M14? Was it leather?

Thanks,
Greg

Thanks, I can most likely find one at a gun show.

I was issued a M14 in the army (64-67) The ones I had came with the Military Issue web sling.

Avoid the MRT leather/cardboard abortion.
