So I currently have two rifles with slings on them that do not detach. They are old military style slings and are at least 50 years old. There are not obvious signs of cracking etc. and I probablty wont be "using" them myself but would like to keep them useful and in good condition if I can. I have uswed my share of saddle soap and/or Mink oil/silicone on other things. Is that appropriate for slings? I haven't bought any Balistol yet but that might be an option. Other ideas? Also, how do you deal with the green oxidation around the brass hooks and fittings on these slings? Thanks CL
