    Looking to buy this Torel leather bear sling...anyone have one?

    I remember the sling from the early 90s or so and apparently they don’t make them anymore I’d really like to find one to purchase for my rifle does anybody know where I could buy one? Guess they’re made by Torel.

    I found an old photo from a previous eBay sale of it...

    I've never seen one. Maybe Wythe Leather can make you one?

    Guess there were more from the late 70’s, early 80’s. I remember seeing them at the LGS for sale and Gander mountain at the time. Thought it would look cool on my 35 whelen carbine cannon Remington 7600 with the factory grey laminate stock I installed on it. The quest continues! The one above was for sale last month on fleabay so there must be a couple floating out there yet.

    Found a listing on eBay today from a pawn shop on Texas. I messaged them and asked if they would do a buy it now instead of an auction. I got it for $20 plus $8 to ship it. I’m pretty stoked. It looked in pretty good condition. I saw one go for $89 plus shipping last month on there and remember them selling for $59/$69 back in the early eighties. It’s Going on my 35 Whelen carbine 7600!
