You need durable acrylic templates for simple, fun leatherwork. Therefore, we offer two powerful options: the innovative “Thumb Hole” Sling for superior comfort, and the classic Traditional Rifle Sling. Furthermore, buy them separately, or grab the combo for maximum savings!
🌟 Our Unique “Thumb Hole” Rifle Sling Template
This distinctive design makes your work stand out. In short, it builds comfort and style directly into the piece!
Key Features:
- Innovative “Thumb Hole”: Simply place your thumb in the designated hole; consequently, this helps secure the rifle on your shoulder. Thus, you eliminate frustrating slippage!
- Ready for Inlays: Precisely cut slits mark the space for beautiful leather inlays. Specifically, mark the slits with a leather awl. Next, cut out the interior piece. Finally, you can place a beautiful inlay using exotic or regular leathers.
- Precision-Cut Acrylic: Because they are easy to see on any leather type, all pieces use durable 1/8″ fluorescent green acrylic.
- Adjustable Length: The template measures 41.5 inches overall; however, marked adjustment holes allow you to shorten the final sling by up to 10 inches.
🛡️ The Traditional Rifle Sling Template
If you prefer a classic look, this template provides all the pieces you need for a time-honored design. Moreover, it offers the same precision and durability as our “Thumb Hole” model.
