Attaching T-21 Strap to Stock End


Recommended Posts

Hi there all -

I scoured through the forums quite a bit but couldn't find an answer to this:

I have the Enfield straps with the brass C shaped pieces on the ends.

I also have a Woodchuck T-21.

How do I get the strap through the stock strap swivel? Do I have to bend the C shaped pieces so it'll fit through?

Thanks!

Hello Arch.

My but it's your lucky day ;)

I purchased Woodchuck's T-21 sometime ago although it's only recently painted/ weathered & also x2 slings from the same outfit you did.

In answer to your question the whole brass fitting needs to go through the ring so that you can attach the sling back on itself.

I only just this afternoon went to our local gun shop & picked up a replacement swivel to fit the Enfield sling from that website.

The size I got was 1-1/4" swivel & the sling fits perfect so at a guess Chuck is using a 1" swivel.

Here's a few pix for you to show you & I hope fm looking at the photo's you'll be able to see how to sling both slings on themselves.

I take it you know how to remove the swivel from it's ball housing on the bottom of the stock?

If not just unscrew the thumb wheel/ knob to as far as it will go out then push & turn so that it unlocks

Sorry for the over kill of photo's but yea... paints a thousand words ;)

meh!!! :(

For the last two pictures I tried to capture the slings on themselves for you as well, as a guide.

Not the greatest photos but best I could do with my ip4 & it being night here.

Hope I've managed to help.

[Edit] You get 2 in a packet & it should say what size ;)
