That's in great shape, thanks for sharing.
Any images of the Amberg 1917?

Very nice fabric sling...BILL
They are rather rare in this condition, but you see worthless ones on occasion. I think the early 1915 variation (it has no leather and is riveted to the qr) is scarcer, only know of 3 or 4, and these about twice that many, but they are super hard to find in good condition.
Images of an 1915 variation. The leather ends version is later, and come in several different styles. The Kar98a version is even more elusive, of this type.
BTW, this sling came on a attic find in Utah, a 1914/15 MO 1st block... both are owned by another collector.

One came on one of my G98 snipers. It's the only one I've seen.

Welcome TP, great to see you came over for a visit!
I would also very much like to see one of the woven paper slings, maybe we can all chip in and get CB a camera!

Next thing to look for is the felt version.
