sling swivel stud for Pachmayr grips
« on: January 27, 2011, 09:51:05 AM »
I have a Presentation grip for my Contender, and I'm interested in getting a sling swivel stud for it.  Is there a source for these anywhere, or do you have to homebrew them anymore?  I was wondering if the rubber was solid enough to maybe screw one in with the coarse (wood) threads.   Anybody tried this?

Thanks for the reply, Deacon.  I couldn't find them on Midway's site, but looks like I might have to put a WTB thread in the classifieds and keep an eye out for one (or make one myself).

Anybody got a link?  I just searched through 14 pages of sling stuff, plus a Contender search and pulled up nothing.   :(

Unfortunately I just threw a couple away last week or I could have sent you one as a gift.   And so it goes...

Here's a link to Midway for a swivel stud kit of the TC Contender:

I put an Uncle Mike's machine screw swivel stud on my Contender's grip cap.  However, you'd have to do some carving on the Pachmayr grips, I believe.  Details here: http://www.castbullet.com/srsling.htm

     I just can't trust the fate of my Contender on a sling stud attached to the grip cap.  I know some switch to a metal cap and upgrade to longer screws....but they are still small wood screws...screwed into wood. :-\
