Karabiner 98k sling in black

[fallbarbarossa]

Does anyone have examples of Kar.98k slings in black or know if these did in fact exist or not?

Thanks!

As far as I know, black ones did not exist !

Some slings may have turned almost black because of the usage and wear (and leather fat) but I never saw a black one.....

Hello,
same here....never seen an original WWII german sling for the K98k made of black leather.
I actually have one black sling, but the use, the dirt and the grease made it black...
Thanks

Thanks guys, I wasn't entirely sure. I see a lot of black repros on the market, however.
