I don't know if there is much of a market, but I'm not doing it to get rich either. It was more or less one of those "surely enough I can figure out how to make those" kind of projects. But there should be more pistols without lanyard loops than lanyard loops without pistols, as the loops are more easily lost if they ever separate.
They were staked or peened from the factory (have to look closer when I get a chance), but they do obviously come off. They may work loose after while, they may not be peened correctly, could be torn loose by accident, and I know that some were simply removed by owners that didn't like them.
