Does anyone know of a manufacture that make p/e of just weapon slings? I need U.S. and U.K. slings and don't want to purchase the ones we normally get as I don't need all the other stuff and you never get enough slings for dios. Any help is appriciated, thanks.

I use wine bottle foil. One bottle can provide at least a dozen slings. Just cut using a #11 blade and a metal straight edge. Make a small fold and the butt stock end and larger one at the barrel end. If you wnat, you can add buckles of fine wire. The foil holds folds quite nicely and will easily lay properly over a shoulder, etc.
Other people use paper, masking take, electrical tape, yogurt tops. Lots of "free" alternatives to PE.
