Alright, this may seem like a silly question, but here it goes: For the life of me, I can't find the right bolt snaps to use with stage bottles. I am looking for genuine marine grade bolt snaps, brass, with a stainless steel spring inside, and a large enough swivel eye to be used with dry gloves (1.5 inches in diameter). Our LDS scene down here is not prepared for anything beyond recreational and not even the boating stores have what I'm looking for. I don't like the Dive Rite bolt snaps, as they are stainless steel, overpriced and prone to rusting and getting stuck. I ordered a set of brass snaps from LP, only to discover they were poorly advertised and turn out to be too small. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks all - I really appreciate everyone's input. I ended up ordering from Tech Diving Limited. Nix Dog Collars has good prices, too, but they only sell in bulk, which is a little impractical for me.
