Those are Korean Marking on the Sling. The ROK used the M1 carbine and M1 Garand. During and well after the Korean war.
I have an M1 Carbine that was made by IBM in 1942.
Back in the 80s up through the mid 90s you could get a Military issue M1 Carbine from $150 to $250 depending on Grade. My dad tells me that when he was a kid in the late 50s through mid 60s you could go into the local hardware store and pick up a WWI & II bolt action rifles ie. Springfiled 03, Enfiled MKIV and K98 etc for Under a Hundred dollers. Dad said they just had them stuck in a old Pickle barrel by the front door!!
Oh to be back in the good old days.
I would like to also point out that the Military M1 carbines are the best no matter there age. They will always perform better than a modern copy Is an Iver JOHNSON. For anyone looking t getting a M1. Make sure it is military issue. Not only do they make great target rifles. There great for Rabbit and Squirels. Also with JHP loads there a great reliable home defense weapon...Especialy with the Bayonet..lol.
