I have ordered the Silverado stock cover from https://gunstockcover.com/ It cost $95 with free ship by USPS. The cover is available with or without cartridge loops. I ordered the one with the "stich" option. This is leather lace stitching in place of the cartridge loops. My sling setup has a cartridge pad for 10 rounds so I don't need the loops on the cover. I also ordered the left hand version. Each cover is made to order so it takes a little time. Right now his site says about two months but, on the phone, he said the wait was about one month right now.

I will be ordering a couple of WWII military style leather slings on Monday. The order will also include a couple swivels for wood and a 22 rimfire tube. They aren’t very expensive and good to have around.

Jon's stuff is top notch, you will love it. I have 2 of his. One on my Henry and one on the High Wall. I am talking to him about a simple rough out leather one for the black powder rifle too.

"Slings, butt cuffs and lever wraps" Sounds kinky! :o :lol:

Though, I could see dressing up my BB with those at some point.

There are some good looking options on Etsy. I found Wasatch Leather there out of Utah. Super happy with my sling and I imagine if you called them they would make whatever you want.

I received the butt cover from gunstockcover.com and it fits perfectly and looks very good. This is the left hand version so the lacing is on the left hand side of the stock. It is also comfortable on my cheek.

I went for the lacing on the butt cover instead of cartridge loops as I have 10 cartridge loops on the sling.
