Luger Steel Lanyard 'Staple'

[DonVoigt]

Rich,
that frame is long gone, it may not have even been mine.
And I may or may not have installed a loop into the holes, if I did
I would have used red loctite and been done with it!

I did not think it unusual to see the chamfer, so it never dawned on me that a picture would be of value.

I'm not trying to change your mind, and it is really akin to the question of angels dancing on the head of a pin, it really does not matter to me how they were installed!

If you are happy with a press fit- good enough for me.

According to several members here that is exactly what happened.

But 'loose' does not mean 'fell off'. If the holes were indeed chamfered, the loop could still stay in even if loose.

I'm checking the blueprints now and I see nothing of an inner chamfer. Pages 1801-2-3 of the TBLAP DVD show excellent drawings of the frame and the holes and their dimensions...but no chamfer is shown...

I have no preference of how it was done...I just need to know if it will hold up to being pulled against!!!

If you can pry it off with a screwdriver, then I'll have to think of something else...But if it takes a hammer and punch then I'm golden!!!

Sounds like an easy enough experiment!
