Did the MP41 have its own sling or war it the same as an MP40? Also did the 44 have a K98 sling or was there a dedicated sling for it?

Cheers

Hi Ben, there was a dedicated sling for the MP44.

My understanding is that the MP44 was mainly used with the K98 sling, the configuration on the MP44 works well for this sling, see also Bergflak's page on this (Mauser K98k Slings) to quote; "The G41(W), the G41(M), The G43/K43, The MP43/1/ MP43/MP44/MP45/StG44 and the StG45 all used the J 216 (K98) Karabinerriemen."
