Paracord Help Please...
I want to try my hand at making a paracord sling.
I want to get and use the real USA made 550 military cord.
Is this what I should be looking for? 'MIL-C-540H TYPE III'
Any good suggestions as to where to get it, more than welcome.
Thanks

I got a 1,000' spool from supplycaptain.com. From what I can tell, theirs is up to spec. 7 inner strands plus the outer casing, and they have all kinds of colors to choose from. Their prices are also very reasonable.

Thanks so much for the awsome offer Paladin.Paladin wrote:All I have, I just took this photo of a spool I got from the Rigger Shop. How much do you need I am willing to share. .
I haven't gotten that far into how many feet I'll need to make a sling.
I kinda got overwhelmed with all the different cord to choose from.
I do know I want to do the sling in a tan or desert camo color.

Don't know how good this is, but this vendor on Amazon

I've been meaning to order a spool but don't have the time for any projects right now. He's got a lot of positive reviews, too many to just be shills.
