 Thanks for the continued kind words on the new straps GX, Jeff, and Ken...thankyou.gif

GX - no doubt, you will absolutely love your incoming strap from Rich.

Jeff - Thanks for keeping me in mind relative to 22mm pig buckles...If I run across anything, I will be sure to let you know too!

Ken - So the top lug is the screw bar type, the bottom lug (the crown side lug at 6 o'clock), holds the strap via a solid, beefy pin that is very tightly toleranced to the through hole in the crown mechanism.  The pin has a non-symmetric recess to receive the set screw (you can see the set screw from my top views included in this post).  While it is a very unique crown/lug configuration, I have to say that the setup is very stable with no play whatsoever.  I have zero concern that the strap could let go with this configuration.
