Lever wrapping

Ok, first official question on the board for me.

I'd like to wrap the levers on both my 92s. Probably 550 para as I seem to have miles of the stuff. Any tutorials you'd recommend I look at?

Cheers,

Rich

Hi Rich..

This is the wrap I got for my R92..

https://hellhoundleatherco.com/collecti ... r-wrap-kit

Don't worry that it's Henry, the standard one fits the R92.

Also.. check these out.

that shows a larger lever loop but the principle is the same.

For reference: Hellhound Leather will ship to GB/UK. Pioneer Gun Works and D4 Guns wont. Skinner sights will ship to GB/UK

These will not: https://store.stevesgunz.com/

This is my wrap, from Hellhound Leather..

I don't have a tutorial, but paracord is pretty slick. My guess is you may need to finish it off with a melt instead of just a knot.

I just did a really quick search for "paracord lever wrap" and found quite a bit of stuff.

Here's one youtube vid



That's a start ...

Thanks for all the links etc. Three guesses what I'll be watching over the next hour or so.

I'm at the range tomorrow so will hopefully get at least one lever wrapped tonight. Wish me luck!

Cheers,

Rich

I like the leather look myself but there are lots of paracord tutorials on the tube
