Still on an (expensive) learning curve here, but see the following after studying the photo: Original D tip sling was probably correct judging by the appearance of the female fastener and the weave. The imprint of the original D tip is still visible at the fastener end of the sling. Marks from a pin punch being used for crimping are visible on at least one of the C tips, maybe both. The C tips may not be an exact match for each other. How am I doing, Harlan? - Bob

I think you've pretty much gotten these slings down now Bob!
(It only takes a bit of experience, which can sometimes be costly!)
