The metal ring on a pistol or revolver is called a lanyard ring. A lanyard is a piece of thin cord, that clips to the ring, and then is looped around the shoulder, usually as part of a military or police uniform.

It's been a while, but US and UK military police used to use lanyards as part of the military uniform from about World War I to the recent past.
