Can be supplied with Broad Arrow ordnance markings & dates, if required £45  British 1914 Pattern Same basic design as the 1903 Pattern sling, but no hand sewing was required in the manufacture of this version - meaning non-specialist labour could be employed in its manufacture Made from top quality veg.-tanned English leather, and a choice of nickel or brass/copper rivets (both types are correct for W.W.1 slings) Can be supplied with Broad Arrow ordnance markings & dates, if required £40  |
