Where can i get bars to hold my strap on my 5517?

[wan]

I am looking for bars to fit flush to hold my nato strap on my modded 5517. The lug holes on the case to hold the bar holding the strap on have been modded to gen specs so i would need one that would fit. Anyone know wher i can buy a set? Thanks, wan

You realize nothing will fit flush, I hope. Military bars are welded in and then polished on the outside- you'd just need to get another case, unless you're a welder.

Gen springbars are available on the bay:

There's also the aftermarket bars out of Hong Kong, etc. for a little less- timeholder comes to mind as a seller of these.

I love the wording on that auction "Genuine" in the title followed by "After market" in the description......HMMMmmmmm.

I'm in the same boat and I've read that 2mm original bars will do the job?

I just cut down some 3D finish nails on my milsub. Unorthodox, I know, but it worked great!
