Sling adapter for Nordic Extended handguard

[Dr Mitch]

I just put a Nordic NC-1 extended handguard on my 3-Gun rifle, and was wondering if there was a cheaper way to mount a sling swivel than buying a section of rail & a clamp-on adapter. There's a 6.5 mile run&gun match here in OK in January, and I would like to sling the rifle for the long march.

My idea is mounting a sling swivel adapter through one of the rail mount holes. Something like that. I am not tactically inclined, I just shoot an awful lot. I don't want to end up ruining the handguard.

Uncle Mike's swivel stud, available from Brownells. The thread is 10-32. Get the shortest threads, and use Loctite 242 when you put it in.

I ended up finding the Nordic-made adapter and ordered from Make Ready Pro Shop. My Google-Fu is very weak when using my iPad. Thank you all for your input. That Yankee Hill adapter would have been waaayyy cheaper.

Para cord is always a good option. I've also gotten some sling swivel studs and drilled and tapped hand guards and lock righted them in.
