The good folks at BFG have released another version of their stellar Vickers sling. It utilizes a Cobra buckle that is generally used in life support applications and will NOT open under load!

Believe it is steel. This is the most heavy duty buckle on the planet I believe.

the cobra buckles are made by austrialpin for paragliding. they're aluminum alloy with a brass release mechanism, and an advertised load capacity of 2000lbs.
i've had a 1" version on a low profile SOTECH rigger's belt for about 5 years, and john willis uses them for his cobra riggers belts. they're great buckles.

they advertise a steel version but i've never seen them available - all i've seen are the alum ones. do a magnet test on the male end to see if it's steel or alum - i'm curious.Boy if that is Alum. I am the Pope!
