Dave, These replace the shoulder strap and hook to your gear with a snap hook. They were made from white riser material. I already tea dyed them to take away from how bright white they were. They appear much whiter in the photos than they do to the eye. The OD one is an original one Lt. Hutch bought. The OD ones were made out of different riser materials. Both are correct. Losing the shoulder strap will also force the user to keep the radio closer and tighter to his body. This change alone will make it so I don't have to repair the radios every two or three events.

My next project will be to re-texture and paint the radios.  |
