  • Patent number: 6843393
    Abstract: The adjustable leather rifle sling is a shoulder sling for carrying a rifle, shotgun, or other long gun. The adjustable leather rifle sling is formed from a single leather strap. A large adjustable loop is formed in one end of the leather strap, and secured by a slide-lock knot. The slide-lock knot is formed by cutting two slits into the leather strap, to form three small strips. Each of the small strips is turned 90° so that three small bands are formed perpendicular to the length of the leather sling. The adjustable loop is made by passing an end of the leather strap through the bands of the slide-lock knot. Thus, an adjustable loop is formed in the adjustable leather rifle sling without the need for clasps, slides, buckles or other fittings.
