    6" stainless steel and barrel clasp key ring

    I have read in the forums here of folks utilizing "A&P mechanics key rings" that said I searched for them and they seem to be about 2$ USD.

    Now I also play a geolocation game called Munzee. And on their website they sell 6" stainless steel barrel cables, 6 for 6$ USD.

    So I thought I'd share the link.

    Okay I can not find the thread I was reading it in (been reading a lot this week) but the Colonist mentioned having an "A&P key ring" in their BOB or EDC. So I googled A&P key ring. And it is stainless steel cable with a barrel clasp. I found this link > http://www.countycomm.com/ring.html < and they refined the term to include 'mechanics' and offer a brief insight then a link to buy. That's all the history I can give right now...

    Huh, must be a sales pitch, I know hundreds of A&P's and none of us use this. Looks like it could be handy though.

    I am sure they are, just find it funny it is called a A&P ring, when no A&P I know of ever heard of one, and most people don't even know what a A&P is.

    Didn't mean to imply you didn't know what a A&P is, but if you ask 100 random people I bet less than 5 of them do.

    What is a flight friendly area?

    I didn't know what an A&P was (when I was younger it was a grocery chain around here)! That's why when I originally read of someone utilizing one of these in there BOB or EDC I had to google "A&P key chain". Then it was "I've seen these items before used for another application" and subsequently linked it for 'us' here...
