I still need some weight with the OMS backplate.  The new, improved
style is back to a thinner, higher quality Stainless Steel, however not
as weighty as the ones shipped this fall.  

I'd think twice about ordering from OMS.  They were unable to replace
mine for 3 months.  The quality is back though.  Customer service from
them is poor to non-existent.  

Caveat Empor.
