New Mean Gene Leather Rifle Slings!

It looks like Mean Gene Leather has a new option in his leather sling lineup: handcrafted Mean Gene Leather Rifle Slings.

According to an MGL press release, the new slings will be available in padded and non-padded versions, with the latter coming first. Although built with bolt guns in mind, they will function with most any long gun and will “…make them look good while doing so.”

Hunting slings will be handmade using 8/9 oz. English Bridle Leather and will ship standard with the following features:

  • Available in Rich Brown, Golden Brown, and Black
  • Textured neoprene non-skid backing
  • Double stitching with #277 Boned Nylon thread for strength and durability.
  • Burnished edges
  • Hand conditioned with Ray Holes Saddle Butter Leather Conditioner before packaging fora soft, supple feel and increased flexibility.
  • 1.25 in. Mil-Force or QD Swivels
  • Attachments secured with Chicago Screws

Note: Customization options including:

  • Personalized laser logo, are available (Mean Gene Leather is shown here as an exemplar only)
  • Non-standard sizes (for young’uns up to big ole biscuit-eatin’ types)

Specs:

  • Weight will vary depending upon the sling
  • Minimum adjustable length 33 in.
  • Maximum adjustable length 42 in.

Slings already available include the MGL 2-to-1 and MGL Two Point.

Warning: slings may not be completely identical. Specific pieces leather and other materials and the very nature of handcrafting could result in very minor differences that will have no impact on the quality of the sling (but will make each one unique).

All MGL hunting rifle slings are sewn one at a time as ordered, from premium leather. Please allow 2 weeks from order date (or when MGL receives the artwork for your logo) before shipment.

*Buyer must be the legal owner of laser engraved logo or provide written permission for use.
