Hook and Eye sling
#387844 - 25/11/24 09:45 AM

Hey guys, been a while. Anyone know where I can get the old style hook and eye swivels. Mine, along with the sling, are lying in the bush somewhere. Cheers.

Kudu services was the one making them for Westley Richards. I bought mine directly from him.

Bob is his name, (03) 9728 5430

Alternatively try Westley Richards.

No problems, happy to help.

Call me if you have no luck with either of those two contacts.

Matt.

Slacker, loosing yours in the bush.

Welcome back, long time. When passing through Katherine one time I'd like to drop in and catch up. No idea when that will be. I didnt make to the BGR Internationals in Darwin this year, alas. Did any Katherine guys go?

Matt thanks, that's good to know.

I was wondering about gunsmiths last week and thinking about whether Kudu Services is still on the go.

Lost it a while ago. I blame Toyota for not sealing their panel seems and allowing rust bad enough to let a sling fall through. Yell out if you are coming through Katherine. No Idea about the BGRS.

According to Google he is still operating, however a number of people have said that its basically part time and he is looking at retiring.
