Sling stud-mounted rail - help please!

I want to mount a Maxtoch on the forend of my Tikka via a sling stud-mounted rail. I don't want it to be permanent and don't want to drill any holes. Happy to lose the sling while the torch is in use. Any recommendations? I'm open to cheap crap from AliExpress!

Cheep and cheerful. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32860863372.html
I tried one for a bipod, and it worked ok. Kinda huge, and I ended up screwing a short length of pic rail to the forend as the permanent solution.

Thanks Quentin, that was the kind of thing I was looking at.

Thanks. I just ordered that one. The piece of rubber sold it. Also, the AliExpress alternative seemed to have identity issues.

Just remember that the bottom of the stock is usually at an angle to the barrel so the beam might vanish from sight after a couple of hundred meters.

Have done the same thing with a brother along side.

Thanks. I'll bear in that in mind. Hopefully the very expensive bit of rubber fro ACCU will make it right!
