Not that easy. Hard to find rated buckles in Merica. Manufacturing is tough.......but somebody has to do it
The buckles on the saddle come from Wales. http://www.iscwales.com/Products/Buckles-Components/
These are made in the USA http://raptorbuckleusa.com/1-raptor-buckle-red-gen-2/
I am just saying that if a supplier is letting you down, find a new one
