Item Description: Translate description

This lot includes five original U.S. Army single claw leather rifle slings from the Indian Wars period, suitable for use with Trapdoor Springfield rifles as well as Spencer and Sharps conversion carbines. These slings are constructed of thick russet leather and each features a single brass hook, typical of the post-Civil War U.S. military sling design prior to the adoption of the M1907 double claw pattern. The leather shows expected age with surface crazing, darkening, and some cracking, but several slings remain supple enough for display. Brass hardware shows a deep, aged patina. These slings are representative of the kind issued during the 1870s and 1880s as the U.S. Army transitioned into a modernized frontier force. They are a fitting addition for collectors of Indian Wars militaria or anyone looking to complete a period-correct display of Springfield, Spencer, or Sharps rifles and carbines.
