Hello

Any one have a source for old style hook type sling swivels in UK, EU and USA.

Looking for set, reproduction or original.

Thanks

Thanks, I saw the Peter Dyson ones, but they have a step in the hook.
WR is pricey.
There is a set of winchester ones on ebay, also pricey.

Thanks Nitro

Someone reproduced them a few years ago, but I don't know who. My latest set for my .375 Rigby big Game came from ebay. I hope I never need another set.

Mike Rowe makes some very nice ones. Hand made and exceptional quality does not come cheap though.

I got mine years ago in England for a pittance along with a canvas web strap. In use, the hooks were noisy so I slipped on some heat shrink tubing (and shrank it) and now they are very quiet.

I hope someone here scored the ones on ebay yesterday. I was not in the mood to put my house on the market to pay for sling hooks. What do you guys think?

I think if you can find good enough photos and try hard enough, you can make a set.

I am not sure which ones you are referring too, they can very widely in price on ebay from this

low-end price


to this

high end price


I don't know how much the differences in the slings add to the prices.

Not much. Everyone is looking for the hooks. The slings are nice but not that nice.

Jeff's Outfitters were carrying them ,maybe he can help

I have a reproduction set of hooks. Believe I purchased 5 years ago but do not recall from who. note on bag $50.00. If you PM me I can text pictures. Regards,
Dave
