color of slider buckle of the web belt.

[whipcracker]

I have read in posts that it was both brass and steel. With both of them appearing in Raiders (which is my main concern)

Any know the definitive answer (if such a thing exits with Indy).

The buckle is brass, but I think that its seen as silver at times just due to distressing. I know I have a brass web belt and the brass wore off from use etc and looks silver. But it is brass

It seems like the originals were plated brass, so when distressed the silver colour showed through.

Even some of the 'Solid Brass' ones have a white metal back and white metal pins that the gold colour rubs off eventually.

Templar's explanation is what I've heard all along too.

Did anyone ever get a look at a screen used one?

Maybe there were both kinds... What were the real ones, if there were surplus old military belts used in Raiders?
