I solved any possible spinning with a touch of JB Weld around the base of the mount on both my installs. Didn't think there would be a spinning problem in the future, I'm just kind of anal that way.

Bumping an older thread...
I'm upgrading a 16" mid-length A2 into something a big slicker. This morning I ordered the MOE hand guards w/ the QD Micro Mount-N-Slot and a few other goodies.
A quick search brought me here and I thought I'd bring it to the top for anyone else who was in the market.
They also have an option now to mail your MOEs in so they can install the QD on your current handguards. Just gotta send mine in!
Ok guys, I am putting one of these in a Cav Arms C-1 Buttstock. Any advice before I start?
All,
I have just finished installing 2 QD Micro Mount N Slot sling mounts. 1 is on an MOE midlength HG and the other is on an MOE Carbine length HG. The product is just wonderful, easy to mount and it works very well. The Carbine HG was a little more tricky to work with. I had to rotate the mount to the vertical position instead of the horizontal position that I used on the Midlength HG. I also had to shave down one of the alignment pins on the bottom section of the HG as the pin was hitting the bottom of the QD mount. The pin is the one closest to the HG ring. Again, excellent product and satisfaction level is very high.

Did this work this past week.
I alos roughed the inside of the stock and used some plastic-specific epoxy as a reinforcement and I used a whole tube on both attachments.
I ordered a set of carbine length hand guards with pre-installed QD mount. Excellent setup (much to the envy of fellow shooters, who now have IWC contact info :D ). It was absolutely worth the money, and really expands the utility of the 'basic' hand guards.
I sent two of my carbine handguards out to IWC and had the QD mount installed. I also just ordered a set for my new naked Kino upper. They work great.

Can this be installed on a TRX without taking the rail off or no?
No. You need access to the screws from the inside.
