Try searching for "Chicago screw" on ebay.
I don't know what size you want but I just got 2 pages of results.

Thats the problem I got when I did a search, it's finding the right size.
I think I will have to measure them and send one of them an e-mail to see if they have the correct size

I have just ordered some from a supplier in the UK, they should arrive next week.
Hopefully they will be the right size.

You can always cut them down if they're too long.
I got mine from eBay but the guy is no longer trading.....

I think you might be the reason that i am looking for these.
Was it you who posted some pictures of a modified Kurt Thune sling some time ago where you converted it to a single strap going to the handstop.
If so you set me off thinking about doing it, but with a few modifications.
Please correct me if I am wrong
