How strong is the ASC?

The entire item is an all-steel assembly.  In all of our testing, we have never had a ring fail.  That includes contractors in Iraq beating them up in the field.  Plus, we hand inspect and assemble each one, Loctite the assembly with a special grade of Loctite, and the ring is keyed to prevent any twisting.  It's one tough mother.

If you ever manage to break one we'll replace it.
