I took a chance the other day and ordered a “rusty” sling from liberty tree with hopes that I can clean it up and breath new life into it and use it on my Garand, has anybody ever had good luck cleaning one up before?

I have not had experience with them, but they would have to be dirt cheap to take a chance to get one to clean up nice enough for display. They probably not hurt for pure function.

Do yourself a favor and spend another $14.00 and get a nice one from them.

Ok so it came in in decent shape, now it’s time to see how well I can clean it up.

Do you have a dishwasher?

Not perfect, but certainly usable

If you want a new GI sling check out: https://www.ammogarand.com/bayonetsslings.html

I just purchased two. Actually, I made a mistake and got them in nylon webbing. I guess they'll end up on my Ruger 10/22 LTR and on my M1a.
