Need to install a Sling swivel Stud. Discussion in '. Uncle Mike's Sling Swivel Stud 115 RGS Set - MidwayUSA. Forum software by XenForo™ ©2010-2017 XenForo. I put a sling on my Remy 870, ensure your drillbit is smaller than the threads, but a bit larger than the shank, mark where you want your swivel nut to go. Drill in about 1/2 or a bit longer than the shank of the swivel nut that will screw in the stock 2. Get a long nail that will fit in the hole of the swivel nut and screw in 3.
- I have a new Ruger 10/22 and am looking into installing a sling swivel on which to mount a bipod. Has anyone done this before? The guy at Gander Mtn. Told me that I had to reinforce it on the inside? Any tips would help.
- GrovTec 1' swivel kit. For 1' slings only. HGTSW-40 fits all Henry rimfire H001/H003/H004 series rifles HGTSW-302 fits Henry centerfire H006/H009/H010 series rifles. Please note this kit will not fit current Production H009B Henry Brass.30/30 Rifles above Serial # TTB041010.

Location: it's hot as hades - florida | I was told by a LGS gunsmith today that he would not install a swivel stud for a bipod. He told me the forearm section does not have enough substance to accommodate the pressure applied when folding up a bipod.
Then, I called Ruger and they emphatically told me they do not recommend it neither. They said to look for a bipod attachment option for the barrel band.
Does anyone know anything about this option???
Strangely enough, after the guy from Ruger made the recommendation, he could not point me in any direction.
HELP!!!
Thanks in advance!!!

Location: Texas | You can use a machine screw stud with a nut/washer on the inside, plenty sturdy unless your bipod is unusually stiff.
You can also attach a short section of picatinny rail to the fore-end (with screws/nuts), then use a bipod that attaches to a rail.

Location: Lake Lure NC USA | The type of sling stud with a machine screw & nut may not work either, if the forend section is thin.
There is a sling stud that goes in-between the barrel band, made by Uncle Mikes (I think,) that will allow the use of a Harris Bi-pod that clamps to these studs.

I use this type for sling attachment but have never tried adding a bipod.
If you try the fore arm mounted rail, you may need some sort of 'backer' inside-either thin flat washers or pour some epoxy in after the screws are in place(kind of makes it permanent but spare stocks are cheap).
My previous 'go to' 22 was the Remington Nylon 66 so I had similar problems mounting sling eyes. As a last resort, I got some Uncle Mikes threaded eyes (don't remember the thread-maybe #10 x ??) and D&T the stock. Then I mixed some epoxy and squirted some in the hole before threading the eye in place(a fairly tricky operation as the buttstock is sealed). Those have withstood decades of use and abuse and are still solidly in place.

Location: UT/AZ | I have done mine 2 ways,
Picatinny Barrel Band for the Ruger 10/22 - Black Nylon by Superior Concepts.
https://www.amazon.com/Picatinny-Barrel ... B004O9AGSE
I liked the 2 bolts and symmetry of this one but it did have a little give.
So then I went with the; ProMag Ruger 10/22 Carbine Tactical Barrel Band,
goofy looking but this thing is a nice part, rigid, and works great.

Im not pushin Amazon but the links work.

Thanks in advance!!! Well, here we have your local 'smith, and then Ruger follows with the same caution and recommends that you NOT install a swivel stud through the forearm. I can't see that any advice that follows, like, 'Go ahead and do it anyway', would be good advice. The suggestion to use the barrel band, if the stock you have does indeed provide one, seems to me to be a better way to go at it. One thing that I've found when installing the Uncle Mike's swivel stud in the barrel band, is that some material on each side of the slot will need to be removed so the upper end of the swivel stud will fit in place. I've only done this with the aluminum barrel bands and have never tried it with the plastic version, so, go at it cautiously if you decide to try it.

Location: Rugerville, AZ | I waited for a pic that would explain why - but I am surprised the 'gunsmith' couldn't reinforce the inside of the hollow stock with a dollop of JB weld or other epoxy, and drill a hole for the stud into it once cured.
That is what I did a couple of decades ago and it hasn't weakened on me yet - and I used it for a sling! I carried it that way for many seasons over the steep mountains without a worry. It has never wiggled loose.
The issue with using the imprecise barrel band - if one retains that part - is that the contact points between stock and barrel and band are everywhere, very un-specific and inconsistent. It is always advantageous to eliminate contact points on the barrel, especially with the relatively cheap 10/22 standard barrel.
Losing the band and reinforcing the cheap flimsy stock where a stud is desired is a simpler and superior mechanical solution for a few pennies and a few minutes - Or just get a better stock for the intended purpose, not a problem these days.
