It sure has been a while since we stocked these slings and are REALLY happy to make these available to you guys again - Please do apologize the lengthy delay - sourcing something proper that won't ask of you an arm and a leg, is a challenge.
Nevertheless;
The shoulder piece here as illustrated has an unofficial MOSSY OAK styled camouflage pattern, w/ box texturing on the working side. This is a soft rubbery neoprene btw. Both ends have adjustable webbing strips and are 1" in width. The quality on the webbing is certainly there as well - being exceedingly strong and robust, certainly capable of bearing heavy rifle loads for protracted periods of time through the bush.
The rear of the sling is adjustable via the triple bar retainer, which goes through through said retainer doubly, making it rather unlikely, and challenging otherwise, to adjust, intentionally or through wear, its length setting, though you'll likely only be performing that adjustment once, if this sling will be dedicated to one rifle only.
The main sling body, as mentioned, comprises of the stretch of neoprene that broadens out to the ends (for added durability), whereafter strips af faux leather on the on the face side of the sling, reinforces the bond of the webbing w/ the neoprene, from the other side. These are crucial stress points on a sling usually, and ought to be properly reinforced.
Those who are familiar w/ hunting gear, will be no strangers to the swivels and how they affix onto a rifle. Sufficed to say - they correspond w/ the through-holes found on sling studs / butt studs, usually factory-installed on rifles. If you do not have a set on your rifle stock and would like to affix this sling to your rifle, then you can find the studs here;

These you would attach to your rifle, though please have someone reputable / experienced in this perform this installation for you, if you aren't sure. There is a bunch of resource material on this available on YouTube as well.

Though, in terms of fitting this sling to your rifle, please see hereunder;
To install the sling studs to your rifle, please see;
(Alot of people do recommend using a good two-part wood-epoxy to fix the swivels in. J-B WELD in our opinion is probably the best, but as usual - avoid the fast-cure stuff; you won't get the same adhesion strength as the original.)
