You can absolutely put a sling on it.

Just grab that (or find a kit with 1 1/4" loops) and follow the directions in the package. You'll just need a drill and some epoxy.

Don't worry, you're fine.

Recently (this Saturday) did some work to convert mine to an LTR. Still waiting on the sling mounts, but here here's mine: http://imgur.com/a/34ePZ

For the curious, here's all of the modifications:

This is the swivel set you need. It has a stud that go into the barrel band in front, or use a screw-in one on the stock. You will need to file the plastic on the barrel band down a bit to get it to tighten down right. The rear one will just be the screw-in one.

As Mr. fufu said below, it's not hard to do and basic drill and file sets are always handy to have around, or it should be a pretty easy job for any gunsmith.

Today was day 1 of my first Appleseed and I'm using a TakeDown. Other than the swivels being a little more work to install it works just fine. I would suggest against the Magpul specifically for Appleseed. The QD points are on the side which will make the gun tilt when you use the sling for support, and the cheek weld can be weird for how they teach it. In general I love that stock, just not for this.

I am sure you, like most of us, have a more mechanically inclined friend who is also into firearms. I understand your trepidation making modifications. You can get a part which attaches to the barrel band on the front end so you don't have to drill there. Here is a kit.

Keep watching gunbot for .22LR ammo. It comes up from time to time. You have to jump on it when you see it for reasonable prices. ($0.30 or more per round is certainly not reasonable!) I would seriously consider placing an order with CMP and being happy when it arrived 6-12 months later since their prices are reasonable if you don't have anything other than that one brick.

The TSA annoys me even more than various States carry issues and restrictions! On top of that I actually like driving. I have traveled as far as a 9 hour drive to an Appleseed but going west which would be about the drive time to Connecticut. One of these days I will make it up that way.

Totally agree, wish they had come with the stocks like that from the factory. Laminate stocks are similar to regular walnut/hardwood stocks (just thin layers appoxied/resined together forming an overall stronger bond and stock) I installed mine fairly easily just make sure your pre-drill your holes correctly and measure twice.
There are a lot of resources on youtube

Find the one that best suits you

Its all totally doable yourself but if you feel uncomfortable you could always have a gunsmith do it (but if I could do it myself without messing anything up you should be able to as well) If your rifle has a barrel band (I dont believe your model does) they make adapters to attach to it so you wouldn't have to drill the fore-end. Uncle Mike's are great products and thats what I used but there are other good brands, make and models as well, hard to go wrong with swivel studs. Also if you drill in the forward stud it would give you the option to use a swivel stud bipod

Good luck and enjoy the awesome rifle!

Here's my setup. Love it all. Sorry for the lack of formatting, I'm on my phone.

Forgot what kind of sling I got. It's nothing fancy. The eagle magazine had some weird plastic bit on it to "assist" is removing the mag but it prevented it from fitting. One swift hit with a large rock took it right off though.

Also avoid Remington golden bullets. I say it all the time but they are crap. I had jams every 5-10 rounds. I'm currently using federal's bulk ammo and haven't had a single bad round.

Mine was like $217 after tax, so I thin $220 is a completely reasonable price. Get yo-self some swivel studs and swivels, a cotton GI loop sling, and some tech sights, son!

u/MoneyKeyPennyKiss · 0 pointsr/1022

USGI sling can be found here.

If you choose to buy elsewhere, be sure to buy cotton, not nylon. Nylon has a tendency to slip, especially in the loop configuration you'll learn at Appleseed.

You'll also need sling swivels and sling studs. You can get them as a set here.

Tip for installing the studs on your synthetic stock: Start with a small drill bit about 1/2 half the size of the screw on the stud. Pre-drill holes in the stock. Insert a nail through the sling stud and twist it into the stock until the holes are perpendicular to the bore.

You're all set. Good luck and happy shooting.
