M1 Garand sling

[geopop71]

I posted a thresd about this sling a few days ago, and I was curiose about the crown on the sling. It is Khaki and has a crown at one end, and yes, the letters
FKF directly underneath the crown. I had previosly stated incorrectly that the letters were at the other end, turns out they were not.
I assume it is Danish, any one care to comment. It has all WW 2 hardware,

I remember seeing Danish Garand bayo's with also this marking on...
Maybe this link helps to authenticate:

I, for example, have an original sling for my M1 Carbine but it's Dutch

Forgot to thank you for the translation, that is even better. My son in law will now have a complete Dane M1 with sling. The unmarked one I have is probably the same, my dealer gave me that one, the crowned example was
$18.00. Not bad! geopop
