Having been asked to make one of these, I have a suitable template & notes, so thought I should also offer these to anyone else requiring one...
Rather than waste money on some of the genuine ex-military slings, that for the most part have seen much better days and are barely usable, treat your Swede Mauser to a newly manufactured hand-sewn leather sling.
The brass fittings used are originals, sourced on my trips to Sweden.
The leather is the correct thickness, sewn the correct way round
...basically, as with the rest of my items, these are closest you will find to an un-issued new leather sling from a unit quartermaster.

PICS to follow
UPDATE
Original, unissued, genuine Swedish Army M96 slings are now also available.
These are from recent stores closures, as the Swedish army is presently downsizing/streamlining, so some warehouses have been closed
& during this process any older stocks of equipment were sold to dealers.
