 LOL. Most people want something for free. That's a nice leather sling built for purpose. It will cost.

No, you won't find it from Walmart. You'll find it from your local, or not, leather smith. It most likely will cost more than a hundred bucks.

It you want a sling of this type and aren't willing to pay the money make yourself one. You can make one that will carry your gun. If you carry the gun much, next year you will pay the money for a custom sling.

Seriously, a hundred or two for a custom sling for a Montefeltro...

Maybe consider leaving the safe queen in the safe and buying a 301. In the long run the 301 will shoot better and it won't bother you to hunt with it. No offense ment.

I have no idea what you mean about a safe queen. My 20 gauge Monte gets hunted in the spring for PA gobbler and during deer season in the special regulations area. I am just going to drill the butt stock, put a forend cap with the swivel stud on & call it a day.

 The cap and drilling your stock would be the easiest and cheapest.

Back in the day.... A long, long, time ago.... They made a sling for a muzzle loader. It was leather and laced up. Think of an open bag around the butt that laced up and then it went between the barrel around the ramrod. It laced on this end also I believe. This would be a no drill option if found.

It will wear on the finish of the barrel and also the stock as well.

Drilling the stock and adding a cap is the easiest, cleanest, cheapest option to protect the gun and finish.
