Is this for a hook style or other? Getting confused with some of the European styles. Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks!
I always picture those with the fish hook style.
Is there something different used?
That's my thought as well John.

There's an "English style tie-on rawhide" that I've seen for sale but never seen installed. Mr. Google brings up a number of different wire loops held into the stud with a screw. The only thing I know for sure is it ain't an Uncle Mike's!
Ironically enough....

The front is a Mannlicher type of loop but I suppose a feller could use a hook on the butt and the 'usual' leather wrap on the front. The front appears to be for a 3/4" width but a 7/8" would also probably work.
Please let me know what you find.
Yep. Where I lifted the picture.

Going back, I see I missed the word "or" in the description for the rawhide ties. So, it looks like either the fish hook with a flat sling or the rawhide tied directly to the stud.
Probably one of these...

Definitely not a QD style.

Long, long ago. I 'borrowed' his seat while he was up getting dinner down in Texas at my first CSA event.
We've had fun ever since buying each other dinner.
