Ok. I never have seen any QD hardware in person, I did not know if that hole was sized correctly for it. Thank you.

I have a JP VTAC tube on another rifle and it came with 2 of those sling mounts. I had to use the backer from the TRX tube but the stud screwed right in. I used a flat washer that fits the hole to keep it from falling through.
This works good enough for a bi-pod mount but I wouldn't trust it for a sling, can't really say why but I prefer the VTAC sling mount that attaches to the top of the rail.

The JP-VTAC and the VTAC Extreme are different products. The JP-VTAC is set up for the the sling swivel attachment point - the Extreme is not.
I liked the older VTAC on my old setup...comfortable and well made.

Sorry for the side note, but I really do dislike the look of the Magpul RVG's.
It is a pure aesthetic thing. I know taste is subjective but for me they look large and block like or rather clunky looking. On the RVG I also do not like the looks of the double screws/hex heads either. The MVG is nicer in this area due to the attachment difference, but they just don't do it for me.
As for function I am sure they work, but my stubbies were pretty much just finger stops and I know you can cut down the RVG, but they just aren't my thing. They look like an afterthought and a growth on the rifle. Just not sexy.
And yes I know sexy has nothing to do with function. :)
to my eyes it appears the RVG and MVG have the same profile except for the taller part for the rail attachment and the screws. is this the part you don't like?
