I must mention that they have some weight to them, and time will tell whether they are too heavy and will stretch the belt leather prematurely. http://www.mywickedarmor.com/ http://www.buckleguy.com/ors16-1-nickel-plate-o-ring-opens-with-screws-solid-brass-ll/?page_context=category&faceted_search=0 Below is a comparison of the four replacement rings and the original ring attached to the belt piece. What's nice about these is they have a small opening that can be removed to place on the straps. The screws are pretty tiny and I needed my electronics tools to work with them. I dropped them several times and nearly lost one to my heat vent! Here's the open gate. The gate is small enough to hide inside the fold of the strap, but just in case it moved, I made sure to put the screw side to the inside. It was a bit snug getting them inserted. Screws reattached: Here's the side facing out with the gate hidden: Here's all four inserted. (The short strap looks wavy in this photo due to the curve of the cushion.) Here's my new belt:
