Lewis T 21 Sling questions

[INDY]

I have a Hyperfirm Lewis Gun. I need to get a sling for it. I'm leaning more towards canvas or nylon. What is correct and acceptble color for MEPD? I was planning on making mine, but if someone knows where to get these or who might make them, please shoot me a pm.

Any info that you can supply will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Dave

Yep 2 enfield slings is what you need, google around the surplus stores or ebay. Think I paid about £12 each for mine

Thanks for the feed back. I just ordered 2 Enfield slings and 2 Springfield slings from WPG (What a price for Glory). Its a Military store that specializes in used and reproduction WWII items. I order a MVII Gas bag for my Indy costume from them years ago. So I figured I would give these a try. These are reproduction slings. I'll let you know how I make out.

Thanks, Dave
