Standard post is fine most of the time , I’ve always shipped overseas and it’s always arrived, a issue can be weapon regulations and quarantine control. Hense always refer to it as a toy and if using natural untreated plant or animal fivers check with the recipient first to be safe, I wouldn’t be confident receiving a plant finer sling if it looks like a potential quarantine risk , Australia has strict borders

Pretty much what Mersa said. I've always found USPS to be way cheaper than UPS or FedEx for international shipping.

Siths are a great part of this community and it’s a good way to try what other people have, I personally have received an absolute work of art 2 years ago and it’s one of my most prized slings, I’m still waiting on last year’s sith to arrive (I’m looking at you ARDVARK) but otherwise I’ve had good results in both sending and receiving. I’m still half half on this year as I originally stated but I have an idea on what I’ll send if I do participate.

Maybe consider a fancy version of your namesake sling Mersa? Or whatever. I personally like the design. It’s a very good EDC sling.

Morphy has one of my original Mersa slings, with a cordage I can no longer get , they are my favourite slings. I also make a true edc sling that folds up to basically nothing and is easily carried on your keychain, that particular style slings pairs very well with lead. Outside of those 2 slings I am no master, some of the slings I’ve received are true works of art

I do indeed and it’s a fun one and right in line with what I prize. Now...if I could only get one of Walter’s masterpieces my sling collection would be finished. Well...maybe a Luis Balearic but then for sure...Well...maybe....

Hold on. It's possible to COMPLETE a sling collection?
I don't believe you.

Certainly not by me.
@Kick- Why yes. I've completed mine at least a dozen times.

I'll have to pass on this sorry. Borders have been closed since March, they're unlikely to open this year. Shipping to mid pacific is highway robbery anyway
