The M nylon strap, anyone uses it?

I have several of the modern straps, with two different types of clips. The type shown in the top of this picture seem to have tighter plastic cover grips than the type in the bottom of the picture.

Both my M6 and M240 have clips as shown in the bottom of your picture. The plastic covers of the older (?) M6 strap are far more snug.

If you find the plastic clips of the bottom type a little loose a quick tweak with a wide bladed screwdriver to separate the "horizontal bars" a tiny bit further apart while keeping the springing of the wire makes the "horns" grip better in the plastic.

I have used these straps on all my Ms since they came out and prefer the way they collapse into a bag taking up no room and you never have to "fight" them. Wish I could fit one to my M Edition 60....
