leather rifle sling

For sale here is what i believe to be a US Civil War Era Musket Sling. If you know what this sling is for, please inform me, and i will update the listing. The sling is complete with brass buckle and hook. The sling is made of black leather. The brass components show heavy age and patina. The black leather is supple and strong, but is losing quite a bit of its surface finish. That said, this piece is strong. However, i cannot find any stampings in the leather, and the brass is unmarked. The back of the strap has the number 20 stamped in paint. I haven’t unhooked the sling, but it is approximately 42 long including the buckle and the hook. The sling is 1 7/8 wide. This is a great looking early sling that will display well!
