Ching Sling??

[Smokey Joe]

Have done some reading on Col. Cooper's "Scout Rifle" concept; have a pseudo-scout about built (too heavy, and it's 8mm, not .308) but have yet to locate a source for the so-called "Ching Sling" the Col. reccommends.

From the photos in articles on the subject, it looks like a good idea, but WHERE does one get hold of such a sling? I have yet to see one advertised.

Any helpful hints would be appreciated.

Smokey:

I'd be interested in your impressions of the Safari Ching Sling after you've played with it awhile. Thanks in advance.

I'd be interested as well, as I was debating picking up this sling or a Latigo.

You can also get them made by Andrew Langlois: http://www.shottist.com/ching.htm . I had one of his Ching Slings for a while, and it was very nicely made.

I have a Galco Ching Sling that I've been very happy with.

The Langlois sling is nicer than the sling in a Cooper Package

The Langlois sling is nicer than the sling in my Cooper Package.

I'd agree with his comments on the slings.
