Anyone need a couple cheap Garand cartridge belts?

Just ran across the cartridge belts in the link below on eBay. They're a steal at $19.99 each BIN + $9.99 for shipping. They look to be Greek issue, so no worries about actually using them. The only negative about these belts is that there are no rivets to attach M1945 suspenders. M1910 web gear hooks / hangers still attach to the lower rivets though.

can you add the rivets by chance?

I'm sure that it can be done with replacement rivets and the right tools. M1956 suspenders will work in a pinch as long as you are around 5'10 or shorter. If you were set on using suspenders you'd be better off going with USGI or repro belt. I have less than $20 each invested in both my USGI belts, so deals can be found on those as well.
