I have one of those brass retaining nuts you speak of. I like the way it looks.
I got if off of a friend's Ultrasaber. (using Tim's MHS parts) When I replaced the switch for a better one that Tim carries, I asked if I could have the brass nut.
In order to get a lower profile in the switch button, I then put the original plastic nut on the base of the threads, then put the switch through the hole and put on the brass nut. Now, the switch button doesn't stick out quite as far.
