Finally put on a bond nato strap. Like the color but so far not very happy with this particular nato band I bought from Barton. Runs little loose and the position of the inner loop is not right for my wrist size.

Do not worry about being banned; you have done nothing wrong to incur that.

Sometimes folks are simply rude with non-thought-out posts.

(I did it once myself in the early days, I will admit.)

Let us know how the 22mm nylon fits. 1mm is 0.039in. Should fit fine.

Just so you are aware. The majority of NATO straps will have that excess strap or what you called a flap. This is to accommodate the variety of wrist sizes large and small. The solution is to cut it, and hit it with a lighter to prevent fraying.

If you’re going for NATO straps for [i]style[/] instead of practicality. You may want to try Chevron adjustable straps from Crown and Buckle instead.

Thanks for the pointers! Will try Crown and Buckle. But long term, I want to get Red RubberB which is currently not available

It fits little tight to adjust. The trick is no out the strap and than spring bars. But once it’s on, it’s good. See my photos above.
