I'll bet you can buy the rings on eBay. You can buy all kinds of weird shit like that, I have seen plastic loops for backpack straps, nylon webbing, velcro in rolls, I'll be they have the metal loops but maybe you have to buy twenty, but worth a look......

You could buy a nato strap from Panatime, take it apart and use the rings for your strap.
