I have some of them myself. They are nice. Dick Murray leather is better. Cheers.
 
I hate to say it, considering I make canvas and leather rifle and binoculars slings… I love safari sling from Vero Vellini

I had several a few years back, but they didnt hold up, most would break after 2-3 years, we were tracking muleys in sand dunes and they would just snap
 
The sling swivel gave out on mine .My bino straps didnt last as long as rifle sling .
 
I have two pair of binoculars with Vero Velini straps and they are excellent and have worked for me.
I have one pr binos with Rick Young chest rig that “minimal” ( however that translates) and are very good. I discovered them hunting buffalo w/ Dean Kendall.
I have Dick Murray leather but have never tried his.

If you want the exact same concept but upgraded with modern materials, the Kifaru Gun Bearer is your answer.

I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.

Hello,
I might be able to help you out depending on how many you need. I could probably spare 50-75 .285g A-Frames. They are factory pulls that look like new. Let me know if you are still looking,
Thanks,
Gary
