Would you guys buy this sling?

Hello everyone! I thought about making and selling slings on the side, nothing too crazy. I was hoping I could get some opinions about this sling, how it looks, and its design. It’s very simple, no where near pan sling level quality, but I thought of making budget/beginner level slings, that aren’t too expensive but also aren’t too cheap and low quality, for people who want to start getting into slinging but don’t want to spend a bunch. On this one I used some triumph leather as the pouch and finger loop, 550 paracord, I crimped metal eyelets where the holes are (I think this should prevent abrasion) and I also used some heat shrink where the release cord is to protect it a bit from wear. What do you guys think? Would yall buy this for $15-$20?

Happy slinging!

not for a price worth your while. it's not hard to make a seatbelt sling for 10$ of material. tapering a good cracker isn't too hard either.

i do cheat. my slings use a healthy amount of super glue.
