Michael A. Glassmounting a sling on a Renegade
Lads,
At one time I was able to obtain a replacement thimble for my Renegade onto which a sling swivel could be attached. Forgot who made it (Uncle Mike???). I have a stainless, standard thimble in my "pile of precious parts" in case anyone needs one of those. I need a blue thimble (threaded to accept the sling swivel).
Do any of you know know a source for this item. Couldn't seem to find it in Midway or other suppliers. I'm finishing up my restoration of an older Renegade and would like to put a sling on it.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
