I could not find any direct reference to the RLO no-drill sling on any of the forums here. https://fiddlebackoutpost.com/colle...custom-leather-no-drill-harnessed-rifle-sling
I am curious if anyone has used them or know of anyone who has tried them. I have a leather boot/sling from Ox-Yoke that I do like, mostly. I do not leave it on the gun after hunting and it's just a p.i.t.a. to keep taking it on and off with always having to loosen then re-tighten the lacing. I ended up putting a Grov-tech swivel mount on the ramrod thimble to run the fore end of the strap through that vs having it tied up around the barrel. I was looking for something a little more practical and effective without any concern for 'correctness'.
I emailed Fiddleback and got a nice reply and am working through some of their questions for fitment, so mostly looking for input if anyone has some real-world experience. Are these functional? Do they mar the finish? Durability? Comfort? whatever anyone may think.
I read elsewhere that the RLO version for the 1873 Winchester may be a near enough fit (shallow buttstock curve). I am looking to primarily use it on a Cherokee and Seneca. I have a mess of Grov-Tech swivel mounts but do not want to drill the stocks.
