I have a handy lightweight Howa Mini 7.62x39 in a boyds laminate stock that I would like to add a sling to. I also want to get rid of the sling studs to make using bags on the bench easier. My thought is to remove the front sling stud, drill out that spot, and epoxy a QD cup in place flush with the wood.
I am wondering about putting a second QD cup on the outside (right) side of the stock so the rifle would lie scope up flat against my chest if worn on the front walking looking for pigs or coyote, or flip over and lie scope down against my back if worn on the back when hiking a distance or on an atv. I would use a Magpul or Vickers sling for easy length adjustment.
Has anyone set up a bolt action this? Any experiences, suggestions, photos would be appreciated.
