Default Large loop lever for an 1895G

I have been thinking about buying a large loop lever for my 1895G but can't seem to make up my mind if I should get one from DRC, Brockman or WWG. When I read the reviews for these levers, the DRC seems to have better comments than the rest. Has anyone got any experience with these, I need help making my mind up.
Thanks for your help,
FA

DRC all the way. I'd take any big hoop over the factory lever any day but to me the WWG and others look gaudy in a way. They just seem too big. The DRC is large enough for gloves while lookin real clean and *right*. I had no complaints this past season with big heavy wool gloves on.

Hi 2006,
I'm sorta leaning towards the DRC also. I agree the WWG lever is gaudy looking and some of the reviews I'm reading arn't real great. Some say the fit is poor along with the finish being rough and I don't especially care for that huge loop. Thanks for your reply.
