Anyone have any good ideas on how (if even possible) one would go about installing a QD socket onto a CAR15 stock? I'm looking at this aluminum stock (http://www.tonyscustomsllc.com/product/c-a-r-stock-aluminum/) and this base (http://www.grovtec.com/catalog/2016-new-products/non-threaded-smooth-push-button-base-gthm-234-275/).

I was thinking just using epoxy, but I wanted to see if any M4C folks had a cleaner way of doing it. I'm not opposed to going with a plastic stock if that would be more doable, but the aluminum is sort of unique and I dig it. Just looking for some brainstorms. Thanks.

P.S.
And I know some wise guy's going to tell me to just thread the sling through the slots like it was designed to be, but I don't want to, so if that's not a good enough reason for you, than you can ignore this thread :)

The socket you linked to is meant to be inleted and epoxied into a wooden stock, this may work better since it is attached by a screw...

One of these should work. Though for the price, I'd just get a new stock if possible.

Perfect, thanks! I have a dozen random stocks laying around, I've just always loved the CAR style.
