REM Model 6 Sling

[timeout]

Last deer season I offered to install stock inserts and and sling studs on a friend's rifle. I felt sorry for him having to carry it without a sling. The friend dropped it off here a few days ago and I decided to look at it just now. Upon removing the front stock on this Model 6, I quickly discovered that the wood is too thin to install the Brownells studs I normally use. This is of course a pump action rifle and there is no extra room on the topside of the stud to build it up with Devcon. Before I try something stupid, does anyone have a suggestion? I would rather not wrap something around the barrel for the front of the sling. Thanks!

I've seen only a couple of these, and the sling was attached to the end (face) of the forearm.

Dang it, wish I had one of them thar Google Machines. Looks like the pre 69 7600 kit will work. Really only need the front part but it's cheap enough can put the rest into my stash. Thanks!

There's also a model that uses a barrel band.

Not going to go that route. The other kit looks to be just the ticket, so long as it fits the model 6.
