different L-bars (ps & ms)
hi!

anyone an idea whats the difference between the MS22002 and the PS22002 Lbars?
accoriding to some manufacturer webpages the PS are hot forged and the MS are drop forged, but im not sure if thats it? both are 3000lbs tensile strenght, the PS seem to be a bit thinner, and the MS are polished (the PS are a bit more abrasive (not sure if this is the right adjective...).

anyone sees any problems in using PS22002's?

thanks!

"MS" means Mil Spec, "PS" means Pia Spec. In
2002, the Parachute Industry Association adopted
several parachute related specifications.
So the PS L-bar is the same as the MS part, just newer. No problem to use it.
