Can Anyone Identify This Strap?
I ordered a door strap on Ebay for my M151A2 and actually received two supposed door straps. The straps look like what I wanted, but are almost 12 inches too short. They can be adjusted smaller, but not longer. Also, the clip on one end is slightly too small to attach to the existing eyebolt in my A2. I looked up the NSN # in the ad, 5340-00-591-3444, and it says that it is the door safety strap for M151 vehicles, which it definitely is not. Does anyone recognize this canvas strap?

Was the seller in the US or was it an offshore buy? I don't think mine have that retainer strap around them like that one and if the hook is too small that is a red flag.

The seller is based in the U.S. and I've bought from them before without problems. It makes sense that it is the door strap for an MB/GPW since it definitely looks like a door strap, just not for an M151. The seller doesn't accept returns, but Ebay will refund my money. Interestingly, I paid for one strap and they sent me two. If they don't want them back, I will have two straps available for free if anyone needs one.
