Great render EDC...Man do you know how hard it is to convince people who have been so accustomed to a theory that has been around so long thst its almost considered a fact...When I first discovered the placement I had to study that damn thing for hours before I got the nerve to post it...And once I posted it I knew it was a matter of time before the rotton tomatoes would start flying my way..
slowly but surely with the help other members (Gray pilgrim, Jedi Scout, EDC) the flying tomatoes have slowed down.
But moving on....While the D-ring itself looks like it has a little brass tint to it, I believe that its still metallic.
Some of the D-rings found at wallmart have a slight yellowing to them..I dont know if this is a result from age or the plating.
Also If you look at the pic above of the D-ring hanging on Luked belt you'll see that the D-ring is chrome/nickle plated as apposed to the Elco frame hanging kits D-ring which is a dull metal...The same pic also showes the D-ring to be a little bigger and thinner in metal than the Elco frame hanging D-ring...
Any thoughts?
I also want to find out how this is attached...Rivet or hex socket screw???. Also, (bear with me here, I just pulled this outta my ass) maybe the d-ring WAS attached with 2 rivets/hex socket screws, except they arent stacked on top of each other, but rather side by side.. I figure that 1 Revet/hex wouldnt be very secure for hanging on the belt..I know Id be worried about hanging my saber if its held on by only 1 fastener...
Heres how I came up with this theory (its very very thin)...here goes....Look at the pic I posted above..The B&W closeup with the RED line. Now look at the same pic next to it without the RED line...Look EXTREMELY close at the area where the rivets might be....you will very very very faintly see 2 faint circle outlines next to each other (since the saber is at that angle the circles are on top of each other...If no one sees this thats OK...Its very faint.
