Thunderbird Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I'm thinking about putting a sling on my Remi 1100, has anyone done it, can you recommend one, and where are the best points to mount the swivels? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbird Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 A right, mine's wood. I'm not 100% sure if I'll do it as 'slinged-up' ones don't always sell as well, but then it's debatable I'll ever sell it anyway, too good a gun and I'd only regret selling it. There are few things worse-looking than a crappily attached sling tho IMO so I was wondering what was what with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casts_by_fly Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 For the front loop, you buy the new mag tube end cap with a sling swivel built in. For the back you can either drill it or there and slings that fit the end of the butt like a web/cradle. Thanks, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy198712 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Might be worth asking how much from your local gun smiths of postage is a lot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 OK a bit DIY but does the job for the few times I'll need it, and delivered for under a tenner. A Jack Pyke one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
