    Default Sling

    I'm looking at the changes for 2010:

    3.1 Service Rifle - As issued by the U.S. Armed Forces,
    or the same type and caliber of commercially manufactured
    rifle, having not less than 4 1/2 pound trigger pull, with
    standard type stock and standard type leather or web sling.
    External alterations to the assembled arm will not be allowed.

    Does that mean you can't use a Turner synthetic sling?

    No, synthetic slings are still OK.

    The only change for 2010 was to renumber the rules so 3.1 covers all SRs instead of just the M1. The actual wording is still the same.

    In any event a synthetic sling would be allowed under NRA Rule 3.1(e) and CMP Rule 6.9.1.
