Yeah, I've already done it. I think I mentioned it in the Gun Porn thread when I was talking to Longbough about his shotgun-'o-many-straps.
Moved most of my sling studs to the 9 to 11 o'clock position, such as on my Remington 870 and Savage Scout so I can carry them a la M4.
It's really an ugly process. Ex: I took a Dremel to the hollow plastic 870 stock and made a hole. The front sling attachment was a mag tube cap.
Not going to be shooting this piece from the bench much outside of messing with the irons / glass when I put it together. I'm just not a bench guy.
I was thinking about your suggestion of doing the 336SS up because it'd be cheaper than buying a whole 'nother rifle. Totally may happen.
If I was really smart, I'd just drop the glass on my Savage 10FCM Scout (since it already has a factory scout mount / irons).
...
Also: On a scale of 1 to Tits, how pleased are you with the Loop rings on the XS scout mount? Does it make you happy inside?
