A first sling (GI type) for my Springfield M1A Standard rifle. With a rifle on my shoulder it's a little insurance to reduce the chance of dropping it while carrying. The rifle looks nib, bought last March.
Sometimes I walk about 40 yards down a steep sandy trail to sit this much closer to our First gong - which is a small 8"x10" plate at 200 yards.
——- I want to cheat—— if an overcast day makes the small rear aperture not so distinct (this M1A "hole", much smaller than on the L1A1 FAL, looks blurry).
