    Qd flush mount sling studs

    Anyone use these and where is the best place to set them into your stock? Cheers

    I have got a couple of stocks fitted with them. FYI the full-rotations ones can be pretty annoying unless you like getting your sling twisted. These days it seems to be trendy to have them on the sides of the stock but that doesn't seem to work so well at least for me if you are also carrying a pack ...

    The best place is on the sides of the stock, both front and rear.
    Going on the side rear only works ok but not as good as both being on the side.

    That way when the rifle is slung it lays flat against your back and doesn't flop around.
    Or if carried on your front you can get it tight against your body and be 100% hands free without the rifle floping around.

    This is the best location IMO for the rear one.

    Having the rear one on the bolt side (RH side or RH shooter) is better is you are using the sling for shooting (rather than just carrying), and it still carrys just find if you mount the QD socket in the rigth spot.

    The opposite side to the bolt. ....don't ask how I know and as close to both ends as you can (so on side close to the tip of the fore as you can and likewise for the butt go as close to the recoil pad as you can) or try taping your sling in position and see if its comfortable first.

    100% they will twist your sling, not the end of the world but pretty annoying all the same.

    How are these mounted into the stock? Drill a hole and epoxy?
