GaryB Posted September 15, 2022 Share #1 Posted September 15, 2022 I am seeking a replacement button for my C-1 survival vest. The button is OD in color, 1" in diameter, has 4 holes and has a raised ridge around the circumference. If anyone has one in their parts bin or knows where I might find one, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patches Posted October 21, 2022 Share #6 Posted October 21, 2022 I have a cigar box of loads of different buttons, alas like Bill, all I got in this style is smaller ones, the ones used on the M43 Field Jackets. But there is a store online that may have it, let me check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, my excitement over finding suitable replacement buttons for my C-1 vest, thanks to your help Patches, has diminished. While the cost of the buttons is roughly $.68 each, the cost to ship the package of 5 buttons to me would be, at a minimum, $18.62. Back to the drawing board!
