I know the Soviets had a unique sling for their RPG-7s, having some different mounting springs or clips instead of mounting like an AKM sling. Does anyone by chance have a photo of an RPG that shows a close-up of the sling hardware? Thanks!

Do you want a pic of the actual clips on the sling or the launcher??

Here is the sling.

Just type rpg-7 in the search and scroll down a bit when the results come up.

Thank you for the picture! The one shown is East German issue, so I'm not sure if the Soviet hardware is the same.

I recently ran across a pile of Soviet slings, and not knowing which one was correct for the RPG, I grabbed them all. Some had the similar clip, but I seem to remember the Soviet sling had a spring as the attachment hardware, and I found such a sling as well.

If nothing else, I'll put the one on that matches what you sent the picture of. Thanks for the help!
